The Brazilian forward, who already ‘painted’ for Madrid as a child, showed against Granada that he can be useful to the club now … and for the future
Rodrygo Goes was one of Zinedine Zidane’s surprises in the starting eleven that he thrashed on Thursday in Granada. The Brazilian forward returned that confidence with a good performance and a goal, the 0-2 on the brink of halftime, which brought tranquility to the Madridistas in a victory that allows the Merengue team to continue dreaming of the possibility of the league title.
They say it in their surroundings: Rodrygo is very focused on being useful to the team after a season that has not been easy due to injuries. His father, Eric, ‘threw’ the other day of Madridismo showing a photo of his son at the age of 11 (back in 2012), when the family gave him his first Real Madrid shirt. A design of fate, because just seven years later he was at the Bernabéu signing his first contract with the white squad.
That photo of the 11 years, that we show you in this information, certifies that, on this occasion, the be from a club since I was little It is not a catchphrase but the reality of a boy from Sao Paulo.
Rodrygo has no doubts, despite the possible changes that are coming for next season, that he is going to continue in white. Your commitment, your soul and your energy are set to, minimum, fulfill the contract that, in 2019, and made him a Madridista until 2025, always with the mediation of Juni Calafat, Madrid’s football director and key person in his signing from the beginning.
It is true that neither the club nor he have taken steps to review the contract. There’s no reasons. Rodrygo has yet to punch the table to be a regular owner, and the club and its environment know it. But in the meantime, help the team with goals and performances like that of Granada.
Thursday was the first goal (plus five assists) in ‘Rodry’s’ 20 appearances this season in LaLiga.
