We did not close the deal with Liverpool because I did not want to rodrygo told The Guardian. I want to stay in Santos even though the offer is very good. The path they promised me was also good for my career.
It has always been my dream to play in Europe. Everything was fine but my desires spoke louder. I want to stay at Santos and make a little history at the club. And that what happened I was able to fulfill my wish. I dreamed I wanted to play for Santos but it was true I almost went to Liverpool at the time.
