Real Madrid's head coach Xabi Alonso announced that he has discussed the future of the team's midfielder Rodrigo. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
He expressed confidence that Rodrigo is an important player for the team. The footballer has played twice in the matches held in the USA as part of the Club World Cup.
Alonso believes that Rodrigo is capable of returning to his best form. In their conversation, the player emphasized that he is in a positive mood and ready to help the team when needed.
Earlier, media reports suggested that the 24-year-old footballer could be sold. His market value is estimated to be around 90 million euros.
Currently, Rodrigo's contract with Real is set to last until June 30, 2028. Rodrigo is concerned that his role as a substitute player may negatively impact his future prospects with the Brazil national team ahead of the 2026 World Cup.
This could affect his position in the national team, as he wants to play regularly. Therefore, he is striving to increase his playing time in the team and regain his competitiveness.
