Rodrygo Signs His Sentence: The Gesture That Will Provoke His Immediate Sale

One of the most criticized players at Real Madrid throughout the season has been Rodrygo Goes. With his performance declining compared to last season, Rodrygo's situation has escalated to the point of being substituted. During the Copa del Rey final, Rodrygo only managed to play the first half before being replaced by Kylian Mbappé.

A wise decision by Ancelotti, who saw that Rodrygo, once again, wasn't playing well. Despite being behind Vinícius and Mbappé in terms of statistics and performance, Rodrygo will request an improvement in his contract. A decision with which Rodrygo could seal his fate at Real Madrid and end up leaving.

While Real Madrid always adequately rewards its players, Rodrygo's decision is hasty. In a season where he hasn't been at his best and hasn't appeared in important matches, a contract increase is impossible.

Rodrygo's Farewell

Joining Real Madrid in 2019, Rodrygo Goes has grown as a player over the seasons. Currently 24 years old, Rodrygo is already one of the best players Real Madrid has. Known mostly for always showing up in important matches, Rodrygo has been key in winning several titles.

However, this season hasn't been the best for Rodrygo, with his performance at La Cartuja being a slight indication of that. Inaccurate in shots, outplayed by opponents, and providing no help to his teammates, Rodrygo hasn't been good at all.

Because of this, the fact that he seeks, even with all his mistakes, a contract increase is practically a sentence to his career. Without having performed and achieved merits to demand an improvement, Rodrygo could be close to leaving Real Madrid.

Real Madrid's Verdict

Aware of the interest several clubs have in Rodrygo, Real Madrid could receive a good sum for the player's departure. Even so, given his importance in past seasons, it remains to be seen what decision Real Madrid will ultimately make regarding Rodrygo.
