Surprise with Rodrygo: he suddenly switches 'Teams' after signing the contract

The saga surrounding Rodrygo Goes continues. The Real Madrid footballer is still at the center of one of the most notorious ongoing issues in the Valdebebas offices, given the progressive loss of prominence he has recently experienced. His place in Santiago Bernabéu locker room could be hanging in the air.

Despite the rumors and reports that have circulated regarding his possible team change, everything indicates that the "11" verdeamarelo  will remain in the merengue sports discipline. He won't do so without changes, given the impression the Brazilian striker has left as soon as he stepped onto the fieldes of Ciudad Real Madrid, in Valdebebas.

Instead of wearing classic Nike boots, a brand that has always accompanied Rodrygo since he began his adventure in European elite soccer, the South American striker was wearing Adidas boots. That modification in his usual work attire has sparked much discussion, opening the door to a sponsorship change that revives rumors from the previous soccer season.

Indeed, the start of the 24/25 season was not exactly discreet in that regard for the Osasco striker. During the early stages of the season, still under the technical direction of Carlo Ancelotti, the footballer stopped wearing his usual Nike boots for a few matches. The change wasn't official yet, but nothing could be confirmed.

He keeps thinking "in white"

The rumors about a deal with Puma to facilitate that sponsorship change were left unsolved... given his striking absence from the final stretch of the 24/25 league season. Now that Rodrygo Goes has returned to training, he is wearing Adidas boots, a decision that draws a lot of attention.

Especially because in the Club World Cup, it's clear how the player, despite having played far fewer minutes than desired, always wears Nike boots. This change, switching to Adidas in what seems to be a definitive decision, can also be interpreted as a message regarding his future.

No one wants to leave Santiago Bernabéu locker room. Xabi Alonso would have assigned each player their role and position for the next season, but not even those who might expect fewer minutes of play would be willing to leave this summer. That means the Tolosa manager will have more options, not forgetting Franco Mastantuono, for fourteen days from now.

The first match of LaLiga 25/26 is scheduled for August 19, 2025, a decision that has caused considerable controversy and discontent in the Valdebebas offices. Beyond the controversy over the date change, Rodrygo Goes continues to attract attention given his "team" change... which doesn't precede his departure from Santiago Bernabéu locker room.
