Between transfers rumors, new coach and new game plan, Rodrygo has lived three very eventful months. Banned by competition from Kylian Mbappé, Franco Mastantuono, Vinicius Junior and Arda Güler in a game system in 4-2-3-1, the Brazilian striker does not really collect the favors of Xabi Alonso.

Holder only twice out of ten possible, the 24 -year -old cannot chain and settle for entries during the game. With a single assistant pass on his own account, Rodrygo is not really helped by his coach since he does not play every time in his favorite post, on the left side.

Questions then arise concerning its status within the Madrid team, reviving rumors of departure for a better playing time. Questions to which the principal interested in a large interview with the Spanish newspaper AS.

“There are always offers”

The Real Madrid striker first delivered in a collective and personal mixed season: “In truth, I went through a very difficult period on a personal level. I stayed for a long time without speaking to anyone. No one knew what I was going through. It was a very difficult period. I was not well, neither physically nor mentally. »»
Fortunately for him, his former coach and now coach of Brazil, Carlo Ancelotti, has been of great help in his reconstruction process.

Rodrygo did not fail to evoke his hectic summer. “Each summer, the same thing happens to me. I wonder if I will leave or if I receive offers from this or that club. Every week, I was in a team if I followed carefully what was published. Of course, there are always offers; I'm not going to lie. But I have always clearly made it known to the club that I wanted to continue to succeed here, even more than I already did ”he said before letting go of a strong index on his future. “I have always said,” As long as Real Madrid wants me, I will be there. “If one day Real Madrid said to me:” Rodry, find a team “, I will say:” OK. But it didn't happen. The club always told me that he was counting on me ”, he concludes.
