Real Madrid are not thinking about the exit going forward despite recording the worst statistics in front of goal

Real Madrid are not considering a move for Rodrygo Goes this summer – for now. The Brazilian striker earned a place in the starting line-up for the first time last season, and with Karim Benzema gone, he was expected to take another step forward in his production, but that has not been the case .

Rodrygo still has 13 goals and 8 assists this season, the third most goal contribution behind Vinicius Junior and Jude Bellingham. However, looking a little under the surface, there is evidence that he is not producing as much as his teammates, needing 121 minutes to produce a goal contribution, behind Vinicius, Bellingham, Joselu Mato (123 minutes) and Brahim Diaz (94 minutes). The last two are his competitors for the other place in front, and they have had less continuity than him.

He also needed 9.25 shots to score, well behind Joselu (6.37), Brahim (6.25), Vinicius (5.4) and Bellingham (3.25), all of the above. The Athletic.
