Real Madrid Confidencial Florentino and Xabi reach an agreement on Rodrygo's future: 'Let him leave...'
Both have spoken and made a decision regarding the Brazilian
This past Monday, Real Madrid returned to work to face a very brief preseason. The players will have to make the most of training sessions to get in shape. But there are also very important decisions to be made in the offices over the coming days.
One of them has to do with Rodrygo, whose future remains uncertain despite all the rumors that have surfaced. That's why Xabi Alonso and Florentino had scheduled a meeting on the first day of training. They wanted to have a meeting to talk about the Brazilian in order to try to address his situation.
From that meeting, they've reached an important agreement that will help make everything clear. "If he leaves, it's a problem because it weakens our attack" is the conclusion they've reached. That's what sources close to Valdebebas have confirmed to Defensa Central.
Xabi Alonso and Florentino agree that the best thing is for Rodrygo to stay this season. They want to try to get him back to his best level, aware that he could contribute a lot to the team. It would also be a significant loss when thinking about the attack and the right wing.
Real Madrid already considers the squad complete for this season
There has been speculation about the departure of players like Mendy or Ceballos, and signings for key positions. A creative midfielder or a center-back seemed to be the main needs they had identified. But the truth is that Real Madrid already considers the squad closed so no moves are expected.
As for signings, they won't go back to the market and they're only looking to 2026 to close deals. They would only strengthen if there is an unexpected departure that could weaken the team. This would be the case in attack if Rodrygo leaves or in midfield if Ceballos packs his bags.
No sale is expected either, even though several players had been labeled as transferable. Mendy and Alaba could do so, although in their case it wouldn't force a move in the market. So unless there's a major surprise, it doesn't seem like there will be any further movement.
