Rodrigo is Close to Leaving Real Madrid
The Brazilian star Rodrigo is experiencing critical moments in his career with Real Madrid, as his future hangs in the balance due to a decline in his performance and the emergence of strong names in the royal team, most notably Arda Güler and star Kylian Mbappé.
Rodrigo, who was a key player in Ancelotti's lineup until recently, has gradually lost his place to Güler, amid fierce competition with the trio of Vinícius, Mbappé, and Bellingham, making his chances of playing as a starter nearly nonexistent next season.
The Brazilian player has scored only one goal in his last 21 matches, and the pressure on him increased after being substituted at halftime of the King's Cup final, followed by his absence due to the flu. With the season ending and the Club World Cup approaching, he has only four matches left to change the narrative.
On the other hand, Real Madrid sees next summer as the perfect time to sell Rodrigo, especially since his market value is still high at 100 million euros, despite a recent decline. The club now has three players they consider the leaders of the project: Vinícius, Bellingham, and Mbappé.
