Rodrygo Goes's future at Real Madrid is more uncertain than ever. According to sources explained to Madrid-Barcelona, Florentino has grown tired of the forward after a season that hasn't lived up to expectations. The club president expected much more from the young striker, but his poor performance in major events has exhausted the board's patience.
Rodrygo, who arrived as one of the great promises of world soccer, has experienced a disappointing season. Although he has shown flashes of quality in some matches, his performance has been very inconsistent and, especially in the most important moments, his contribution has been practically nil. The culmination of this situation came in the Copa final lost against Barcelona at La Cartuja, where he went completely unnoticed and was substituted at halftime... showing Ancelotti's lack of trust in him.
Rodrygo Goes, goodbye to Real Madrid
Florentino, always alert to market movements, has already made a firm decision: Rodrygo Goes will be for sale if an offer of at least 100 million euros comes in. Real Madrid won't give the player away, but they are open to listening to proposals that approach this figure. Among the interested clubs, Pep Guardiola's Manchester City stands out, valuing his youth and growth potential.
The final decision hasn't been made yet, but everything points to Rodrygo's days being numbered at Santiago Bernabéu. From being considered an essential piece for the present and future of Real Madrid, he has become dispensable after not responding when he was most needed.
Real Madrid faces a summer of significant changes, and Rodrygo Goes could be one of the big names to leave the squad. Florentino Pérez seeks to strengthen the team with players of immediate impact, and he no longer trusts the Brazilian to be one of them.
Rodrygo and his performance in the 2024/25 season
However, his performance this season has raised doubts. He has accumulated 13 goals and 10 assists, figures below what was expected. His influence has dropped considerably in recent months.
Since he has the "secured" position, his performance has been inconsistent. He hasn't achieved the consistency he showed in previous seasons. That has reopened the debate about his continuity.
Florentino has had enough: Rodrygo Goes is for sale. For 100 million, whoever wants him and can pay will take him.
