The Real Madrid coach expressed his admiration for one of his proteges.
Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti is delighted with Rodrygo Goes’ form at the start of the season.
“Few players like him on the market”
Ancelotti is counting on Rodrygo to make up for the absence of Vinicius Junior, who has a hamstring injury and is out for six weeks. Until then, he is fully satisfied with what his number 11 shows.
“Rodrygo has the particularity of being able to do a lot of things on the flanks and on the left as well. Perhaps it will be more effective on this side. He’s played in the middle before and done a great job, just like he does when he’s a bit deeper. Rodrygo is a very complete striker and there are few players like him on the market.”he said.
Rodrygo’s arrival at Real dates from 2019. Since then, he has chained 168 matches and scored 38 goals under the merengue tunic. His 2022/2023 season was the most complete with 57 games played and 19 successful achievements.
