The Brazilian club claim that the deal is the biggest for ‘a club in the entire history of football in Latin America.’

Rodrygo has been one of Santos’ key players and is a Brazilian youth international.

He becomes the latest youngster to agree a move to Madrid at such a young age, following in the footsteps of Vinicius Junio, who is due to join the club from Flamengo.

Like Rodrygo will, Vinicius Junior spent last season in Brazil, despite having a deal to join Madrid agreed.
