Recent media speculation has centered around Rodrygo Goes’ satisfaction at Real Madrid, with claims suggesting the Brazilian forward is unhappy due to increased competition from stars like Jude Bellingham and Kylian Mbappé. These reports sparked rumors of a potential transfer.
However, Rodrygo has publicly denied these claims. In a social media message, he expressed gratitude to fans and urged the media to “stop making things up,” suggesting the rumors lack truth. Despite setbacks such as missing the latest El Clásico and dealing with illness, Rodrygo remains dedicated to the club.
Coach Carlo Ancelotti acknowledged Rodrygo’s disappointment—particularly about being excluded from the Ballon d’Or shortlist—saying, “He was not appreciated enough… He should’ve been included and I understand his frustration.” Ancelotti praised the forward’s flexibility, noting his effectiveness in multiple roles.
Though Premier League teams, including Liverpool, have shown interest, Real Madrid President Florentino Pérez has stated the club would only entertain offers above €100 million, and only if Rodrygo himself wants to leave. As of now, Rodrygo has not expressed any intention to depart.
With his contract valid until 2028, Rodrygo is focused on regaining top form and playing a key role under expected new coach Xabi Alonso. His recent comments and behavior reflect a strong commitment to the club and determination to overcome his current hurdles
