Edu Aguirre's warning about Rodrygo after not playing against Osasuna: 'He's very...'

Real Madrid's victory over Osasuna put Rodrygo in the spotlight due to his lack of playing time. The Brazilian was warming up on the sideline but never made it onto the field. Mastantuono did, however, despite having only trained four times with the rest of his teammates.

This has led to renewed speculation about Rodrygo's possible departure in the final stretch of the transfer window. Everything could depend on what happens this Sunday at Carlos Tartiere against Oviedo. However, Edu Aguirre has issued a surprising warning about the Brazilian.

He points to Vinícius and, if he doesn't step up, asks to see Rodrygo playing on the left at some point. "I'm told he's very motivated by seeing Vinícius like this and motivated to stay at Real Madrid. Also to convince Xabi and motivated for this season," the journalist stated.

It seems that, seeing his compatriot's performance, he believes he could even win the spot. This pushes him to fight and to stay at Real Madrid despite the rumors. At Defensa Central, we can confirm that Rodrygo hasn't expressed his desire to leave.

Rodrygo's sale price doesn't convince Edu Aguirre

Another topic discussed this summer is the sale price that Rodrygo could command. Los Merengues would aim for €100 million, but it doesn't seem easy. Especially because, if he doesn't play, they won't be able to demand much money, or at least that's what some people think.

But Edu Aguirre refuses to accept any offer for the Brazilian that isn't serious. "Selling Rodrygo cheaply for €60 or €70 million, imagine if this player played for PSG, how much would they ask us for. €150 million and up," he said to justify his opinion about his possible sale.

Moreover, with such a long season, he also thinks the best option is not to part ways with the former Santos player. There are still a few days left before the transfer window closes. However, it seems increasingly clear that there won't be any surprises with Rodrygo.
