There were offers but I want to succeed at Real Madrid
Rodrigo says he will remain in Real Madrid “as long as they want me” despite admitting that he will leave during the summer.
Brazil internationally for shape and fitness struggled last season, and Santiago Bernabeu was expected to leave with Arsenal, Tottenham and Liverpool linked to the 24 -year -old.
He admitted that he suffers from “physically and mentally” issues in the recent period, but is now determined to win the confidence of the new president Xabi Alonso.
In an interview with AS, he said: “Every summer has the same thing, I will leave and have offers from this or that club. I was going to a different team every week.
“Of course there are always offers, I will not lie about it. But I always made it clear to the club that I want to continue to succeed here, more than I already have. It is a big thing to win my champions of my life, but now I want more European cups with this shirt.
“I always said:” While Madrid wants me, I will be here. ”
“And when I faced some of the problems they were with me. People speculated because I kept quietly. But I knew that I would play this season with Madrid and that I would focus on presenting my best version. It didn’t bother me. I was calm, and here … as it’s always the case. It is really my seventh season.”
Rodrigo is still looking for the best Bernabeu
Rodrigo was reintegated into the first team during the Alonso era, but he has not yet reached his best.
He made eight games in all competitions this season, but he has not yet scored and has contributed to only one help.
However, it is still confident that the improvement is not far.
He added: “When the coach arrived, he called me to speak and told me:” I know you like to play on the left, but I will also need in other positions. I told him: “Okay, Boss, I am here to help the team.”
“Everyone knows that I prefer to play on the left and that I am much better on this side, but I am always available to the team to play on the right or nine. I am in good condition, although I logically, I want to play more.
He explained that “the truth is to think about the last season when its shape decreased exciting:” The truth is that I have faced a very difficult time on a personal level. I did not talk to people for a long time. No one knew what was happening, it was a very difficult time. I was not physically or mentally good.
God is the first, then my family … and [then Real Madrid boss] Mr. Ancelotti helped me out of all of that. Carlo helped me a lot. Every day he saw that I was not fine, I was not there to play, and I couldn’t help the team. But there was no time to recover because we played every three days, then you cannot stop solving the problem. He saw that I had real problems. He understood my moment and my complex condition.
Tell me: “You remain calm, you are not here to play now. “I thanked him and played for the football player to be fine.
Rodrigo Al -Saudi for the Brazilian World Cup opportunities
Ancelotti left Madrid during the summer, but it will continue to work with Rodrigo after it seized the Brazilian national team. The South American State has struggled with the qualifiers, and won the fifth place in the Conmebol section, but it has confirmed its location in the United States, Canada and Mexico next summer.
Rodrigo is still confident that they can face a challenge in the finals despite not winning the cup since 2022.
He said, “Because because of our history, you can always dream,” he said. “We have got respect for our competitors. We are the hero five times even if we don’t do a good job during the past few years. You can always dream because we have very good players playing in the best teams in the world.”
