Real Madrid forward Rodrygo Goes has signed a new contract
until 2028, the Spanish club said Thursday.
The Brazilian winger has agreed to extend his deal in the
same week his compatriot Vinicius Junior also signed on at the Santiago
Bernabeu until 2027.
"Real Madrid and Rodrygo have agreed the extension of
the player's contract, keeping him at the club until June 30, 2028," said
Madrid in a statement.
Rodrygo, 22, has struggled to hit top form this season but is
a key player for Madrid, scoring a brace against Osasuna in May to win Los
Blancos their first Copa del Rey trophy since 2014.
The attacker agreed to join Madrid in 2018 for 45 million
euros ($48 million) from Santos in Brazil, arriving in the Spanish capital in
the summer of 2019, a year after Vinicius.
Rodrygo has scored 39 goals in 179 appearances for Marid
across all competitions, winning two La Liga titles and the Champions League in
2022 among other silverware.
