According to journalist Rodra (via RM4 Arab), Rodrygo’s future at Real Madrid is hanging in the balance, and everything now depends on the conversation with the club’s next manager, Xabi Alonso.
It is said that Real Madrid have not made a final decision yet, but they are open to the idea of selling the Brazilian if things do not align.
The 24-year-old winger has had a tough few months. After showing good form earlier this year, he has now scored just once since February.
Despite his clear effort and commitment, Rodrygo feels out of place in the current system. He has spent months quietly thinking about whether Real Madrid are still the right club for him.
This feeling of not fitting in has grown stronger, and now, with manager Carlo Ancelotti set to leave, the timing feels right for a decision to be made.
It goes without saying that Alonso is expected to take over at the Bernabeu in the summer.

One of his early tasks will be to sit down with Rodrygo and clearly explain his vision for the team and the Brazilian’s role in it. That meeting will play a huge part in shaping what happens next.
Real Madrid are also starting to look at the market. While they are not actively pushing Rodrygo out, they are aware of the interest he is attracting—especially from England.
Manchester City have followed his progress for years, and Arsenal have already made contact. If Real Madrid decide to sell, they would be looking for a fee close to €100 million.
The summer ahead will be a defining one for Rodrygo. While his dream has always been to succeed at Real Madrid, he is now seriously thinking about a fresh start elsewhere.
And with Premier League giants circling, a blockbuster transfer may be on the horizon.
