    Real Madrid star Rodrygo recently marked the impressive milestone of 250 appearances for the club.

    THE BIGGER PICTURE

    Since joining Real Madrid in 2019, Rodrygo has made a tremendous impact, playing a key role in the club's 2022 Champions League triumph and the 2023 Copa del Rey victory. To date, he has won 13 titles with Los Blancos, securing every major trophy available.

    The arrival of Kylian Mbappe in 2024 sparked speculation in the Spanish media that Real Madrid might consider letting Rodrygo go. However, Carlo Ancelotti has publicly backed the Brazilian and continues to include him in key matches. In fact, Rodrygo reportedly turned down offers from the likes of Manchester City and PSG last summer, reaffirming his commitment to the Spanish giants.

  • WHAT RODRYGO SAID

    “It means a lot to me. It’s a dream that I fulfil every day playing here and I’m very excited about this milestone," Rodrygo told Real Madrid's official website (h/t AS).

    "I want to achieve many more. It’s a very special milestone and I want to achieve more and more things with this shirt. I came here with the aim of winning everything and achieving all the titles, but I didn’t imagine I would win them so quickly. I didn’t imagine I would already have two Champions Leagues. I’m very happy.”
