Cafu, a legendary Brazilian footballer, has singled out Rodrygo as the player responsible for Real Madrid’s success, while ignoring Kylian Mbappé, Vinícius Júnior, and Jude Bellingham. According to the former AC Milan right back, Real Madrid suffer when Rodrygo isn’t performing up to par.
Rodrygo has established himself as an integral part of Real Madrid’s lineup, according to Cafu, who spoke with the Spanish daily SPORT (via Madrid Universal).
When Rodrygo is on the field, Vinícius and Valverde both put forth their best efforts, as do Mbappé and Bellingham, according to him. When Rodrygo isn’t feeling well, Real Madrid struggles to put their plays together. He is now an integral part of the puzzle.
Throughout the season, Rodrygo has been an integral part of Real Madrid’s offense, contributing ten assists and thirteen goals. After spending 2019 with Brazilian club Santos, the 24-year-old signed with the Spanish La Liga powerhouses.
