In his inaugural press conference as Real Madrid’s head coach, Xabi Alonso addressed the swirling transfer rumours surrounding Brazilian forward Rodrygo Goes. Amidst speculation linking the 24-year-old to Manchester City, Alonso provided clarity on the player’s future at the Santiago Bernabéu.

“Rodrygo is a Real Madrid player,” Alonso affirmed. “He is a spectacular player, and we will need him.” This statement underscores Alonso’s intent to retain key talents as he embarks on his managerial journey with Los Blancos.

Rodrygo’s commitment to Real Madrid has been evident despite external interests. Earlier this year, reports emerged of Manchester City representatives meeting with Rodrygo’s father to discuss a potential transfer. However, Rodrygo dismissed these speculations, stating, “I’m delighted to be at Real Madrid,” emphasizing his contentment and dedication to the club.

Further solidifying his stance, Rodrygo addressed the media, saying, “This week some media said about bids, clubs, interest. I don’t know anything about it and I’m not interested. And even if there are proposals, I have no idea about that. I’m staying. I’m happy here. How can I leave Real Madrid?”

Real Madrid’s valuation of Rodrygo reflects their desire to keep him. The club reportedly set a minimum transfer fee of €150 million for the Brazilian, signaling their reluctance to part ways with a player they consider integral to their future plans.

Despite Manchester City’s reported €150 million offer, Real Madrid remains steadfast in their decision to retain Rodrygo. The player’s versatility, ability to play across the front line, and consistent performances make him a valuable asset for the team.

Alonso’s vision for Real Madrid includes fostering a proactive and balanced team, allowing individual talents like Rodrygo to flourish. He emphasized the importance of integrating players effectively, ensuring that each contributes to the team’s collective ambition.

The new manager also highlighted the significance of tactical flexibility and adaptability in modern football. By retaining players like Rodrygo, Alonso aims to build a squad capable of adjusting to various challenges and opponents.

Rodrygo’s journey with Real Madrid has been marked by significant achievements. Since joining from Santos in 2019, he has made over 200 appearances, contributing crucial goals and assists in domestic and European competitions.

His performances in the UEFA Champions League, particularly during the knockout stages, have endeared him to fans and solidified his reputation as a clutch player. These moments have further cemented his importance to the team.

The Brazilian’s commitment to Real Madrid is not just professional but also personal. He has often spoken about his dream of playing for the club and his desire to continue making history with Los Blancos.

While the arrival of high-profile players like Kylian Mbappé has intensified competition within the squad, Rodrygo has welcomed the challenge. He expressed his eagerness to play alongside top talents, emphasizing that such additions only enhance the team’s prospects.

Alonso’s endorsement of Rodrygo sends a clear message about the player’s role in the team’s future. As Real Madrid embarks on a new era under Alonso’s leadership, retaining key players like Rodrygo will be crucial to achieving sustained success.

The upcoming season presents opportunities for Real Madrid to compete on multiple fronts, including the Club World Cup. With a blend of experienced stars and emerging talents, Alonso aims to guide the team to further glory.
