Following Karim Benzema’s departure from Real Madrid in the summer of 2017, the club’s roster underwent a structural overhaul, particularly in the direction of the attack.
Several players were had to make adjustments to their duties and responsibilities as a result of the fact that coach Carlo Ancelotti used a two-man striking force and Jude Bellingham was positioned to play the advanced number 10 position.
Rodrygo discusses his new job in the company.
Rodrygo Goes, who concedes that switching to central positions has been tough for him, was one of the players who had to adjust to a role that was unknown to him.
In spite of the fact that he does not take pleasure in playing the role of a backup striker, the Brazilian asserts that he is prepared to do everything for the sake of the team’s overall accomplishments.
I found it really challenging to adjust to the new position that I was given. For as long as I can remember, I’ve been saying that I like playing inside, but not in the role of a No. 9.
“However, I always do everything for the team, and if they needed me more inside, I was going to adjust my schedule accordingly. In point of fact, Karim departed, and the situation was quite challenging for all of us. The comment was made by him via DAZN. “I think I’m still adapting, it’s not my favorite position,” he said.
The best must play together
In a very short amount of time, Real Madrid will be able to fulfill their long-held ambition of clothing Kylian Mbappe in a club shirt of royal white.
As a result of the anticipated arrival of the Frenchman, there has been talk that several of the present players, including Rodrygo, are now on their way out of the club.
On the other hand, the Brazilian is of the opinion that great players should constantly interact with one another. When he was asked about the possibility of Mbappe joining Real Madrid, he responded by saying, “The good ones always have to play together.”
Respect and admiration for Modric
Rodrygo and Luka Modric have a long-standing relationship, and they talk about one other in a comical manner, referring to each other as father and son.
The 23-year-old asserts that Modric is the person who has taught him the most, and that the two of them are in daily touch with one another.
“Luka Modric is the one who has taught me the most, and I have a particular affinity for him. He has always been of great assistance to me, and he has informed me of a great deal of information.
“Because he is ten years old and I am eleven years old, we are always conversing, and he is always at my side. The two of us are usually kidding about, much like a father and son,” Rodrygo put it.
