L-R: Rodrygo, Mbappe and Bellingham play for Real Madrid
Brazilian football star Rodrygo Goes has expressed his desire to leave Real Madrid due to an issue with his teammates Jude Bellingham and Kylian Mbappe.
According to Spanish media outlet Marca, the Brazilian attacker is upset with the fact that media attention has shifted from him since the arrival of the English midfielder and French attacker.
The report indicated that Rodrygo refused to feature in El Clasico, where Madrid lost 4-3 to Barcelona on May 11, 2025, when the coach could have used him.
It was reported that Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti’s decision to reshuffle his tactics and play Vinicius Junior and Mbappe upfront with Bellingham behind them has also infuriated the player to reconsider his future.
The Brazilian forward is said to have the confined himself among the squad and spends most of his time at home when there is no training or team activity.
Despite these reports, Rodrygo has not had a brilliant performance in the 2024/2025 season like in previous years.
He has played 45 matches, scored 11 goals, and provided 7 assists, totaling 18 goal contributions.
His future remains unclear as the club is likely to change coaches, with Xabi Alonso set to take over.
