Neymar Drops Transfer Bombshell: Rodrygo Favors Chelsea Over PSG Amid £70 Million Talks
In a major twist to this summer’s transfer window, Brazilian superstar Neymar Jr. has revealed that Real Madrid winger Rodrygo Goes prefers a move to Chelsea over Paris Saint-Germain, despite heavy interest from the French champions.
According to reports, Neymar disclosed that the 23-year-old is eager to leave the Santiago Bernabéu in search of a fresh challenge—and has set his sights on the Premier League.
“He told me he prefers Chelsea over PSG,” Neymar reportedly stated. “He’s not enjoying his time at Madrid anymore and feels ready for something different.”
Chelsea Leading the Race for Rodrygo Transfer
Rodrygo, widely regarded as one of Brazil’s brightest young talents, is currently valued at around £70 million. With Chelsea now emerging as the preferred destination, the Blues appear to have gained the upper hand in what could become one of the biggest signings of the summer.
A move to Stamford Bridge would give Rodrygo a new platform to shine—bringing his Champions League pedigree, pace, and attacking flair to a Chelsea side looking to return to the top of English and European football.
Rodrygo to Chelsea: What It Means for the Blues
If Chelsea secure Rodrygo’s signature, it would not only strengthen their frontline but also send a clear message about their ambitions under new management. Beating a European giant like PSG to such a high-profile target highlights Chelsea’s renewed pull in the transfer market.
With pre-season preparations already underway, a deal for Rodrygo could be the statement signing the club needs to signal a serious Premier League title challenge.
