Real Madrid Confidencial Maldini announces Rodrygo's sale, the reason why he will not stay with Xabi Alonso
Maldini hasn't hesitated to talk about Rodrygo Goes's future at Real Madrid
The future of footballers takes many turns, so their destiny is uncontrollable, which can explain Rodrygo's current situation.
However, Xabi Alonso is focused on the Club World Cup, since they'll play their first match in the international tournament this Wednesday.
The problem for the man from Tolosa is that Rodrygo's continuity is generating a lot of noise, especially after his latest statements.
"The end of the season wasn't easy for him, but he took some time off, which was good since he didn't go with the national team. It helped him reset. We talked from day one and I see him eager to contribute and enjoy himself on the field. He can give us a lot of good things," said Xabi Alonso himself at the press conference before the match with Al-Hilal.
Maldini leaves Rodrygo's future hanging in the air
In response to these words, Maldini spoke on COPE about the future of the club's number 11.
"Rodrygo has gone through a process of mental stress. I think it's very difficult for him. If you look, he struggled at the end of the season. He has Güler and Mastantuno, two players who can play near that position if they don't play with three forwards. Also Brahim. It's very difficult for him," the journalist explained.
Julio Maldonado's argument increases concern about the Brazilian, since the two left-footed players are a clear threat, especially because with Xabi Alonso everything is a fresh start, although the starting spot against Al-Hilal makes it clear that the Basque currently sees him as one of the main offensive references.
The truly decisive moment for Rodrygo Goes will come after the world tournament and during the holidays, when clubs will move more intensely and players will have to make a final decision about their future, something that could be more uncertain than expected for the Paulista.
The Brazilian has a contract, but he remains a target for the Premier League, so his sale could bring in a lot of money at Santiago Bernabéu.
