Real Madrid’s forward, Rodrygo Goes, has inked a fresh contract extension that binds him to the club until 2028, as announced by the Spanish club on Thursday.
This renewal coincides with his compatriot Vinicius Junior’s recent commitment to the Santiago Bernabeu until 2027.
In an official statement, Real Madrid stated, “Real Madrid and Rodrygo have reached an agreement to prolong the player’s contract, securing his presence at the club until June 30, 2028.”
Despite facing some challenges in achieving peak performance this season, 22-year-old Rodrygo remains a vital figure for Madrid.
He notably secured a memorable victory for Los Blancos by scoring a brace against Osasuna in May, which led to the team’s first Copa del Rey triumph since 2014.
Back in 2018, Rodrygo made a significant move to Real Madrid from Santos in Brazil for 45 million euros ($48 million), eventually arriving in the Spanish capital in the summer of 2019, one year after his compatriot Vinicius.
Rodrygo’s track record at Madrid boasts 39 goals in 179 appearances across all competitions, complemented by two La Liga titles and the 2022 Champions League victory, adding to his collection of silverware.
