Despite Real Madrid’s impressive 2-0 victory against Bilbao, Spanish journalists somehow managed to steer the conversation back to Kylian Mbappe.
Rodrygo, who scored two goals on Sunday evening, was bombarded with questions regarding the possible move of the Frenchman to Bernabeu and how it might affect his role in the team. The Brazilian remained professional and responded to the question in the coolest way possible. “Mbappe to Madrid? I trust you on that, you always know better. I don’t know what’s happening.”
“Where will he play next season and will he stay on the bench if he comes? It’s not my problem. It will be the coach’s problem. I am solely focused on Real Madrid,” Rodrygo stated. “I am very happy with the goals tonight, but even happier with Eder Militao’s return after a long time,” said the Brazilian star.
With his two goals against the Basques, Rodrygo has now scored 15 goals and provided eight assists in 41 appearances for Madrid this season.
