EXPERT TAKE

ESPN's Alex Kirkland connected increasing speculation astir the aboriginal of guardant Rodrygo.

For the 2nd summertime successful a row, Rodrygo's aboriginal astatine Real Madrid is successful uncertainty -- but for precise antithetic reasons. Twelve months ago, the presumption was that Kylian Mbappé's accomplishment astatine the Santiago Bernabéu meant a apt departure for the Brazil forward. Mbappé would regenerate Rodrygo successful Carlo Ancelotti's beforehand 2 -- alongside Vinicius Junior -- and the Brazilian would leave, alternatively than judge a reduced role.

Rodrygo made 30 appearances successful Madrid's 37 LaLiga games, 22 of them starts, scoring six goals and assisting six others. He can't kick astir a deficiency of opportunities, helium conscionable didn't marque the astir of them. In fact, helium scored lone 1 extremity since the extremity of January and was retired injured for the last month. Underwhelming performances, including successful Madrid's Champions League elimination to Arsenal and the Copa del Rey last decision to Barcelona, erstwhile helium was hauled disconnected for Mbappé astatine half-time, has led spell a increasing feeling that Rodrygo mightiness leave. As good arsenic a deficiency of enactment astatine the Club World Cup.

If Madrid bash authorisation a transfer, and Rodrygo accepts it, determination would beryllium nary shortage of suitors, particularly successful the Premier League. Nobody doubts his quality, and astatine 24, helium inactive hasn't reached his peak. Despite his deficiency of consistency astatine Madrid, there's a bully accidental he'd thrive successful the close environment, wherever he's the main antheral successful attack, alternatively than a supporting player.
