Recent reports suggest Rodrygo made a final decision on his future at Real Madrid ahead of the new season.
Rodrygo’s future at Real Madrid seems uncertain, with reports showing that only the direct intervention of the club’s next manager will keep him in the Spanish capital.
The Brazilian striker faced a challenging season, especially after Kylian Mbappé arrived at a free transfer, which pushed his pecking order. The 24-year-old often finds himself playing various roles throughout the frontline, showing frustration earlier this season:Usually, I’m just filling the space. Is anyone missing there? Put Rodrigo in. Is anyone missing on the right? Rodrigo. Has anyone disappeared No. 9? Rodrigo. That’s it. ”
There has been speculation about the interest of multiple Premier League clubs, and according to Marca, Rodrygo is now considering summer exports. Spanish media reported that Madrid’s next head coach will directly ask to persuade him to stay at Santiago Bernabéu.
Carlo Ancelotti has long been a admirer of Rodrygo, and despite his role fluctuations, the striker has never publicly criticized the Italian manager. However, it is widely believed that Ancelotti will soon leave his position, with Bayer Leverkusen’s boss and former Madrid midfielder Xabi Alonso becoming the leading candidate to replace him.
Unless Alonso or another incoming manager sees Rodrygo as a key part of the team, the club’s hierarchy may choose to sell him. The transfer can cost a considerable fee to help Madrid.
