Real Madrid’s Rodrygo is taking a no-nonsense approach to the difficult situation he’s currently experiencing at Real Madrid, revealing the only way he’ll be able to win over Xabi Alonso is through “hard-work and dedication.”
At his best, Rodrygo is one of the best wingers in the world. He’s been an integral piece of Real Madrid’s two latest Champions League triumphs and amassing close to 300 appearances for Los Blancos.
The problem is that it’s been a long time since he was at his best version and Xabi Alonso has relegated him to a sporadic role during his first season on Madrid’s touchline. Speaking after Brazil’s draw against Tunisia earlier in the week, Rodrygo shared his thoughts on his current situation with Los Blancos.
“There’s not a lot I can do,” Rodrygo admitted, via . “I have to keep working, dedicating myself and trying to win the trust of the manager there [Alonso], like I have the trust of the manager here [Carlo Ancelotti].”
“That [Alonso’s trust] is only obtained during training sessions. To keep improving, for him [Alonso] to see my dedication and maybe then I’ll have more opportunities.”
