Real Madrid star growing more and more ‘dissatisfied’ with life under Xabi Alonso | OneFootball

Real Madrid star Rodrygo remains far from happy with his situation in Spain’s capital at present.

That’s according to ESPN Brasil, who have early this week confirmed that the 24-year-old is still strongly considering a departure from the Santiago Bernabéu in January.

Frontman Rodrygo has of course been forced to make do with a bit part role at Real Madrid across the season to date.

Amid a run of 28 successive appearances without a goal, the former Santos talent has been for the most part relied upon as a substitute by new manager Xabi Alonso.

And this is a role with which Rodrygo is not at all happy.

As per a report from ESPN Brasil, the Seleção international is desperate for starting minutes, particularly with a view to next summer’s World Cup.

So much so that:

‘He maintains the option of leaving the club, which could happen as early as the next transfer window, starting in January 2026.’
