Real Madrid, coached by Alonso, will be heading to Miami, USA to welcome the club's first appearance in the Club World Cup against Riyadh Crescent. On June 12, "Marca" wrote an article that Rodrigo was in very good training condition. After exchanges and talks with Alonso, the Brazilian striker decided to stay and challenge the main position. In the 2024-25 season, Rodrigo's performance and status declined, with 51 appearances for Real Madrid, Rodrigo scored 14 goals and 10 assists. Rodrigo did not play in the final against Barcelona and La Liga in the last three rounds. At that time, there were rumors that Rodrigo had an unbalanced mentality and even decided not to play for Real Madrid. The 24-year-old Brazilian striker, the valuation of Germany and Transportation dropped from 100 million euros to 90 million.

This summer, there have been many rumors about Rodrigo's transfer scandals. It is rumored that Arsenal and Chelsea are paying attention to Rodrigo, and Real Madrid's price for players is 100 million euros. Because of the existence of Vinicius, Mbappe and Bellingham, Rodrigo is no longer the absolute main force, and his status in the locker room is not as good as that of the above three superstars. The Brazilian striker was interested in leaving.

However, Alonso's appointment changed all this.

Marca said that at Real Madrid's Valdebebas base, Rodrigo is one of the few first-team players to be engaged in training. These days, Rodrigo has been in good training and has a very good mentality. Rodrigo did consider his future, but after meeting and meeting with Alonso, Rodrigo was determined to stay at Real Madrid, meet the challenges, and strive to play as the main force.

Alonso highly recognizes Rodrigo. If Real Madrid uses a three-forward formation, Rodrigo will have a place to use it. "Marca" said that Rodrigo, who is fast, can break through, shoot and actively defend, is very in line with Alonso's tactical requirements. Alonso told Rodrigo that Real Madrid had his place; Rodrigo also assured Alonso that he would succeed.

Rodrigo has emerged from the downturn, anger and angry mentality in May. During this FIFA game, Rodrigo was not selected for the Brazilian national team, but stayed in Madrid and trained with Alonso. On Real Madrid's training ground, Rodrigo smiled and wrote on social media: "Happy." The Club World Cup is approaching, and Rodrigo is fully charged and ready to show his skills.
