Just in – Real Madrid attacking superstar seriously considering summer exit | OneFootball

Rodrygo is currently experiencing the most difficult period since joining Real Madrid. Since the day after the Copa del Rey final defeat vs Barcelona at Estadio de La Cartuja, the Brazilian has been taking time to reflect on his future.

And in a major development, according to Radio MARCA, the 24-year-old attacking superstar is seriously considering leaving the club.

Rodrygo is disheartened after fighting to achieve his dream of succeeding at Real Madrid, only to feel that his style of play no longer fits within the current squad. It is understood that he has been contemplating this decision for several months.

The Brazilian international’s exclusion from the top twenty in both the Ballon d’Or and FIFA The Best awards is believed to have played a part in his thinking.

Although Rodrygo has proven himself to be a decisive player for Real Madrid in the Champions League, he has begun to sense that the attention surrounding Kylian Mbappe, Vinicius Jr., and Jude Bellingham at the club is too dominant.

Three years ago, Rodrygo was a key figure during Real Madrid’s legendary Champions League comebacks. However, he has not returned to that dazzling form this season, coinciding with Mbappe’s arrival.

Despite his efforts to regain his confidence, Rodrygo has not recovered the spark that once made him stand out. While he admires the three players who now accompany him in attack, the feeling is that his more collective and combinative style clashes with theirs.

As such, Rodrygo is now seriously considering the idea of leaving Real Madrid in the summer, unless the new manager that replaces Carlo Ancelotti – expected to Xabi Alonso – manages to convince him to change his mind.

Rodrygo has had strong interest from Manchester City in the past while clubs from Saudi Arabia have also sent in lucrative proposals. Both the player and the club were quick to reject any overtures, but the situation could change this summer.
