- He is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays as a winger for Real Madrid and the Brazil national team
- He made a perfect hat-trick in his first Champions League appearance
- His recent performance has made him the most sought after winger with Arsenal, Liverpool, Manchester City and Manchester United showing interest.
Rodrygo Silva de Goes is one of the most sought-after wingers by several top clubs due to his recent performance, where he scored four goals with three assists in the last five games for Real Madrid.
His performance has drawn the attention of several top clubs like Arsenal, Liverpool, Manchester City and Manchester United. In his first Champions League, he made a perfect hat-trick against Galatasaray in 2019, and this made him the youngest player ever to score a hat-trick in the Champions League.
Being at Real Madrid has given him the ground to develop his career as he trains with some of the world’s best players like Kylian Mbappe among others. Despite not being in the starting line, he has contributed so much as a substitute and this is enough proof that given a chance to start, he is capable of delivering the best.
However, some other top clubs are eyeing the young player with an offer of more regular playing time, which could be crucial to his development but Real Madrid seems to hold him for much longer since they extended his contract up to 2028.

He began playing for local clubs in Brazil before joining the Santos FC academy when he was twelve years old. At the club, his skills were impressive and he rose through the youth ranks, making his professional debut for the club.
In the next two years, he established himself as a key player for the club and became a standout performer helping his team win the Campeonato Paulista championship. This attracted interest from top European clubs, eventually earning himself a place with Real Madrid.
Real Madrid secured his transfer for a fee of $47.9 million, making him one of the most expensive young players in the world at the time. He played for Real Madrid’s reserve team Castilla before integrating into the senior squad.
He quickly adapted to Spanish football and impressed with his performances at Castilla, eventually making his debut for the senior team where he gradually earned more playing time. Despite not being a starter, he has played a valuable role as a substitute and is a fan favorite with his memorable moments, including a perfect hat-trick in his first ever Champions League appearance.
His talent also drew the attention of the Brazil national team and he received his first senior call-up in 2019 at the young age of 18. He has not yet become a regular starter for the team but he shows a promising prospect.

Real Madrid could also loan him out to another club for him to gain more experience as a starter and this could benefit him in the long run if he returns more prepared to compete for a starting position at Real Madrid.
His recent performance has attracted the attention of several top Premier League giants and a transfer could guarantee him more playing time and potentially a higher salary.
