Rodrygo Sends a Clear Message to Real Madrid — Here's What He Wants
Real Madrid's season has been a season to forget as Los Blancos were unable to secure two major trophies: the Copa del Rey and the Champions League. What follows them is the poor form of some of their star players, including Rodrygo Goes.
The Brazilian winger was key for Real Madrid's success over the past few years, which includes league titles and two Champions League trophies.

New reports from Spain suggest his time in Madrid may be close to an end as Rodrygo is reportedly exploring his options. Guillermo Rai from the Athletic reports that Rodrygo is planning to request a contract improvement.
His current deal with Real Madrid expires in the summer of 2028. The outcome of this request could lead to a potential departure from the club. Two conditions that will decide his future to remain at the capital of Spain are that he receives a contract improvement and fits the plans from the new coach for next season.
Carlo Ancelotti's future at Real Madrid is uncertain, but sources like Fabrizio Romano report that he is expected to part ways with Real Madrid this summer. A new coach is expected to arrive for next season, and if he decides to keep Rodrygo, the Brazilian will be willing to stay. As of now, Rodrygo's uncertain stay could lead to Real Madrid selling him.
Rodrygo's 24/25 season
Rodrygo played a total of 50 matches across all competitions with Real Madrid. He has 13 goals and 10 assists in all competitions. His numbers have not been impressive, especially when compared to the likes of Vinicius Jr. and Kylian Mbappe.

Real Madrid only have the league to play for, and if they don't manage to win it, Florentino Perez may take significant decisions ahead of next season. His last goal was against Atletico Madrid in the first leg of the Champions League Round of 16.
Real Madrid are second with 72 points in La Liga, four points behind FC Barcelona. Real Madrid will play Celta Vigo at home this weekend before playing Barcelona away from home. The final Clásico of the season is a title-defining game that can also define the future of the squad, with Rodrygo's future now uncertain.

Real Madrid star sends clear message amid ongoing exit chatter
Real Madrid's new era under Xabi Alonso has officially begun, and one of the first players to report for training was Brazilian winger Rodrygo Goes. Despite widespread speculation about a possible departure this summer, the 24-year-old has made his intentions crystal clear that he wants to stay at the club. Advertisement Rodrygo has been the subject of transfer rumours since the end of last season, with some reports suggesting he could be moved on to make space in a star-studded attack. But according to the latest updates, the winger has already communicated his desire to remain at Real Madrid. The arrival of Alonso as head coach appears to have been a turning point, as Rodrygo is reportedly pleased with the new manager's methods and atmosphere in training. 'Happy' Rodrygo wants to reinvent himself The Brazilian recently posted a set of images from training on his official X account, accompanied by a single-word caption: 'Happy.' While short, the message spoke volumes. Rodrygo is clearly content at the club and hopeful that the new project led by Alonso will give him a more prominent role in the team. Advertisement Although the transfer window will be active for a long time and anything can happen, the club and the player are now seemingly aligned. Rodrygo has a long-term contract until 2028, with a staggering €1 billion release clause, which is a strong indicator that Real Madrid still value him highly. At 24, he is entering a key phase in his career. With Alonso looking to reshape the squad with fresh ideas and tactical flexibility, Rodrygo might get a chance to flourish in a more defined role. For now, his message is loud and clear that he is staying at Real Madrid, and he is excited about what's ahead. However, one cannot predict what might happen.
