In recent hours, a version has spread within Real Madrid's environment according to which the Mbappé-Bellingham tandem has prevailed over the one formed by Vinícius and Rodrygo.
The Two Factions of Real Madrid
The defenders of this theory justify its truthfulness by stating that when Vinícius is not present, Mbappé and Bellingham shine more. It is the version that argues that the relationships between the two factions are not good. That this is the reason why Real Madrid is not repeating the excellent season of the previous year.
According to this urban legend, which is on the streets, Bellingham and Mbappé have a long life ahead at Bernabéu. Vinícius and Rodrygo will end up being transferred.
In this landscape, one must understand what Eduardo Inda said last night on El Chiringuito about Rodrygo and Manchester City's interest in signing him.
Rodrygo's Father Negotiates with Manchester City
Inda claimed that Rodrygo's father has met with Manchester City due to the interest shown by Pep Guardiola.
"I've been told that Rodrygo Goes's father has met with people from Manchester City a few weeks ago. They insist that he should go play with Pep Guardiola," Inda said.
He reported that "they offer him to play as a left winger, which is what the kid and the father want." He added that "Real Madrid can't guarantee him that position because there's Vinícius and Mbappé. At City, they would offer him to play in this position and more money."
Much is being said about the Arab offer that Vinícius has and the possibility that he might leave Real Madrid, but at the same time, silently, Rodrygo is preparing a big surprise.
Rodrygo Doesn't Feel Valued at Real Madrid
It's no secret that football-wise Rodrygo doesn't feel valued at Real Madrid. The media spotlight falls on Vinícius, Mbappé, and Bellingham, and he is left out.
Meanwhile, he believes that the team would benefit more from his play if he were to play on his natural side, the left.
The offer from City, which also offers him more money, opens the doors to heaven. It's not easy to leave Real Madrid, because the change can never be for the better. But on an individual level, he does come out winning in every sense.
Inda has added that Rodrygo has asked Florentino for more money and to play on the left wing. The money issue can be solved, but his sporting demand only depends on the coach. Ancelotti has enough on the left wing with Vinícius and Mbappé.
The results will dictate the verdict. If Real Madrid ends the season with at least two of the four titles in play, the club will bet on continuity. Only if things end badly, Florentino might opt for a revolution in the makeup of a champion team.
