Outside the Brazilian team since March this year, Rodrygo has opened the game about this difficult period in his career. In a news conference on Monday (6), in South Korea, the Brazilian of Real Madrid also highlighted the reunion with Carlo Ancelotti.
The striker’s last game in Brazil was in the tragic defeat against Argentina, 4-1, in March this year, for the 2026 World Cup qualifiers.
“It seemed like an eternity. I went through a lot of things during this time. But it was good to reflect, cool my head and put my head in place. Today I feel ready to be here again. To deliver my best and show my best football version,” said Rodrygo.

He made a point of emphasizing the importance of the trigger with which the striker won two Champions League cups.
