Rodrygo Goes delights in Castilla debut

In his debut with the Real Madrid youth team, Br azilian Rodrygo Goes delighted the fans at the Alfredo Di Stéfano stadium as the Castilla team defeated Alcorcón 3-0.


After a great preseason with the first team, Rodrygo has been moved down to play with former Real Madrid legend Raul Gonzalez and the Castilla team for the foreseeable future. However, that could all change if the former Santos man keeps playing like he did on Wednesday night.


It was a stunning 70 minute performance for the teenager who scored the opening goal for Los Blancos in route to an emphatic clean sheet win. Despite the match being a friendly, Takefusa Kubo and Rodrygo both made their debuts under manager Raul.


Rodrygo scored in the 39th minute after some nice link up play with the forward line. His speed and awareness helped him to jump on the loose ball and give Real Madrid the early lead.


It was a performance worthy of a standing ovation when he was replaced by Jordi and it is likely a sign of what’s to come for this promising player.


Fede Valverde has received his Spanish passport, therefore, he will not take up a non-EU spot on the team for this season. That leads many to believe that Rodrygo will be the third Br azilian alongside Eder Militao and Vinicius Junior to be registered in the first team.


Like we saw with Vinicius last season, Rodrygo will likely start with Castilla and if he continues to perform like he has, he could receive the call up from Zinedine Zidane.


The prospect of having two good friends, Vini and Rodrygo, playing together this early in their Real Madrid career’s could marshal in the “new era” of superstar at the Spanish club.


While this is great news for Rodrygo, it will likely force Takefusa Kubo to go out on loan for the season or play with the Castilla team for the entire season.
