Rodrygo welcomes Real Madrid signing after World Cup triumph | OneFootball

Real Madrid signed three new defenders only a few days after the end of the last season to bolster a key area of the team that caused them quite a few problems during the last season. Two fullbacks, Marc Cucurella and Denzel Dumfries, and one center-back, Ibrahima Konate, have been signed, while the club can still sign one more center-back before the end of the summer transfer window.

Although he is still to join his new team, one of these three players, Cucurella, must already have delighted the Merengues. This is particularly because he played a key role in helping his Spain team win the World Cup, showcasing his talents against some of the biggest international sides like Portugal, France, and Argentina.

In addition to the board members, who decided to sign the defender, Real Madrid players are also seemingly delighted with his signing. As Diario AS has reported, the Brazilian forward Rodrygo Goes took to social media to congratulate the Spaniard on his World Cup triumph, and to welcome him to the Merengue club.

Rodrygo replied to a post made by Cucurella in which the Spaniard can be seen kissing the World Cup trophy with the following words:

Before Rodrygo, another Real Madrid star and captain, Vinicius Junior, had also congratulated the Spanish defender and welcomed him to his new club. His post was also liked by several other Los Blancos teammates, including Thibaut Courtois and Antonio Rudiger.

Marc Cucurella showed beyond any doubt his incredible skills and ability to play at the highest level in this World Cup. Real Madrid will have high hopes for him as they look to go into their next project, and leave behind the painful experience of going the last two seasons without any trophy.
