The official extension of Rodrygo Goes’s Real Madrid contract is set to expire on June 30, 2028. The Brazilian forward extends his contract, which was set to expire in 2025, by three seasons. Shortly after Vinicius Junior, who has decided to stay with the Bernabéu company until 2027, the white number 11 is being renewed.
Rodryigo joined Real Madrid as a player in 2018. The White Club delivered Santos a 45 million euro blow following the gamble on Vini, marking the second significant blow to the Brazilian market for emerging players. Both have established themselves as mainstays in the first squad and are crucial parts of their next initiatives, as demonstrated by their respective contracts.
However, Rodrygo didn’t actually become a member of the White Club until 2019, following his majority year. Like Vini, he only made his first-team debut after just three games at Castilla, where he scored two goals. On the sixth matchday of the 19-20 League, it took place against Osasuna, who likewise scored a goal quickly after entering the field of play. By the end of the season, he had played in 26 games and scored seven goals.
Though he did not start, his major breakthrough as a white star came in the 21–22 season, when he was instrumental in winning the Fourteenth European Cup, especially with his double versus City in the semi-final second leg. He finished that season having played 49 games and scored nine goals, a figure he much surpassed in 22–23, when he had already cemented his position as Benzema and Vini’s starting forward, totaling 57 games and 19 goals.
Madrid is still planning to extend the Brazilian international’s contract despite his pitiful two goals this season—against Braga and Athletic. In 2019, he made his debut for the Canarinha senior squad and played for Brazil at the World Cup that was hosted in Qatar.
