Resolution criteria

This market will resolve to "Yes" if Arsenal F.C. officially announces the signing of Rodrygo Goes from Real Madrid by August 31, 2025. Official announcements can be verified through Arsenal's official website or reputable sports news outlets.

Background

Rodrygo Goes, a Brazilian forward born on January 9, 2001, began his professional career with Santos before transferring to Real Madrid in 2019. At Real Madrid, he has contributed to multiple La Liga and Champions League victories. (en.wikipedia.org)

In recent months, Arsenal has shown interest in acquiring Rodrygo to strengthen their attacking options. Reports indicate that Arsenal has engaged in discussions with Real Madrid and Rodrygo's representatives, with transfer fees potentially exceeding €90 million. (as.com)

However, as of early July 2025, negotiations appear to have stalled. Premier League clubs, including Arsenal, have paused contacts with Rodrygo, awaiting potential changes in Real Madrid's stance or a reduction in the asking price. (cadenaser.com)

Considerations

• Transfer Window Deadline: The summer transfer window for the Premier League closes on August 31, 2025. Any agreement must be finalized before this date for the market to resolve to "Yes."

• Player's Intentions: Rodrygo has expressed a desire to focus on the upcoming Club World Cup with Real Madrid, potentially delaying transfer discussions until after the tournament. (as.com)

• Financial Factors: Real Madrid's valuation of Rodrygo at approximately €90 million may be a significant hurdle, as Arsenal evaluates the financial feasibility of the transfer. (cadenaser.com)

Given these factors, while there is interest from Arsenal, the completion of the transfer remains uncertain.
