Meanwhile, Chelsea have set their sights on a Los Blancos forward. Elsewhere, two Serie A giants are considering a move for Endrick this summer.
On that note, let's look at the major Real Madrid transfer stories from May 30, 2025.

Rodrygo Goes
Chelsea are planning a move for Rodrygo this summer, according to Diario AS (via CaughtOffside). The Brazilian forward remains linked with an exit from Real Madrid at the moment.
Rodrygo was once indispensable to Los Blancos' plans, but all of that seems to be in the past. The 24-year-old believes his importance in the team has diminished following Kylian Mbappe's arrival last year.
While Rodrygo has amassed 14 goals and 10 assists from 51 games across competitions, it is believed that the LaLiga giants could let him go for €100m. Despite his recent struggles, the Brazilian's stock remains high, with Arsenal also eyeing him with interest.
Chelsea have now entered the race and are ready to initiate talks with the player's entourage regarding a move. Rodrygo could be enticed by the chance to move to Stamford Bridge, as it would allow him to operate in his preferred left-forward role. Real Madrid are unlikely to stand in his way if the Blues match their valuation, although a final decision in the matter is likely to be taken by Xabi Alonso.

Endrick is wanted in Serie A
Juventus and AC Milan are ready to take Endrick to Serie A, according to Mundo Deportivo (via Madrid Universal). The Brazilian youngster struggled for game time at Real Madrid in the 2024-25 season, registering seven goals and one assist from 37 games.
Only eight of them were starts, adding to speculation regarding his future. The Serie A duo are keeping a close eye on the situation and are ready to prise the 18-year-old away.
The LaLiga giants hold Endrick in high regard and have yet to make a decision regarding the matter. They want Xabi Alonso to assess the situation before taking any steps. Los Blancos could either send him out on loan or sell 50% of his rights and include a buy-back clause in his deal.

Trent Alexander-Arnold
Real Madrid have reached an agreement with Liverpool to sign Trent Alexander-Arnold ahead of the expiry of his contract, according to journalist Ramon Alvarez (via Madrid Universal). The English right-back's deal expires at the end of the next month, and Los Blancos are all set to sign him for free this summer.
However, with the FIFA Club World Cup set to begin on June 14 and Dani Carvajal yet to regain full fitness, the LaLiga giants are keen to sign him a little ahead of schedule. They have managed to convince the Reds to let the 26-year-old leave before his contract expires. Real Madrid will cover Trent Alexander-Arnold's salary for June, while Liverpool will receive compensation for the player's early release.

Inspired by Diego Maradona, Deepungsu played as an attacking midfielder for his local club at subdivision level in his initial years and scored an important goal or two. However, his all-time favorite footballer is Lionel Messi, and evidently, he feels Argentina's glory in 2022 is his favorite FIFA World Cup moment for fulfilling his long-standing dream. He is also an ardent East Bengal fan.
Deepungsu has been a Manchester United supporter since the year 2000. Unsurprisingly, his favorite manager is Sir Alex Ferguson and the Scotsman helped him get through some of the toughest days of his life. Like the fiery Scot, Deepungsu also leaves no stone unturned when it comes to accuracy in articles and only relies on credible sources.
Despite believing in Kylian Mbappe and Erling Haaland to create an iconic rivalry, Deepungsu reckons no one can match the longevity of Messi and Ronaldo. He spends his leisure time writing about life on his blog, reading books, and playing the guitar.
