Santos' Rodrygo Not Expecting to Move to Real Madrid in January

Santos starlet Rodrygo does not believe he will be joining Real Madrid in the January transfer window.

Per Goal's Sacha Pisani, Real agreed a deal with Santos earlier this year to sign him next summer for a fee reported to be €43 million (£39.3 million).

Rodrygo turns 18 in January, but he isn't confident of the possibility of heading to the Santiago Bernabeu this winter.

He told Gazeta Esportiva (h/t Pisani): "I don't believe there is a chance I will leave for Madrid early. It's agreed that I'm going in July. That agreement is between Santos and Real Madrid.
