Rodri is the most important signing Real Madrid needs to make
The Athletic reported today that Rodri is open to playing for Real Madrid, but Florentino Perez doesn’t want to sign him!
If Real Madrid wants to avoid a third trophyless season, they absolutely must sign Rodri now.
Firstly, the team doesn’t have the qualities he needs. Secondly, Rodri is the kind of player who can win you titles, who can give you a long-term competitive edge, and who can also make the players around him play better! Let me amaze you with Rodri’s World Cup stats.
First, Rodri was the player with the most contributions to his team’s attacking phases and sequences, with 1459.
He also received the ball under pressure the most times, with 232, and demanded the ball against the opponent’s block the most times, with 269.Not only that, Rodri also broke through the press the most times, with 106 passes, completed the most passes with 648, reached his top speed the most times, with 1133, and covered the most distance, 83,802 meters (approximately 84 kilometers).
This is despite his team not being a direct or physically demanding team, but rather a well-organized one that maintains possession in the first two phases of play!
Imagine this performance from a player returning from a cruciate ligament injury and two other injuries last season.
Rodri is the most important signing Real Madrid needs to make right now!
What Rodri is doing at the World Cup is the very definition of a miracle!
I want you to imagine that Rodri tore his ACL a year ago, missed 51 matches, and lost an entire season. When he came back, he was in top form, and everyone thought his football career was over!
And that’s not all. Rodri suffered five injuries this year, two of them to his knee, and missed 27 matches this season. He’s supposed to have surgery after the World Cup, so he’s playing with crippled knees!
Imagine, after all that, Rodri dominated everyone and became the best midfielder in the World Cup. Imagine winning 11 duels against a physically formidable team like France. Imagine him breaking press lines the most with 80 passes.
Imagine him receiving the ball under pressure the most times with 232. Imagine him covering the most distance and reaching top speed the most times—397 times!
Now imagine what Rodri could have done in his current form. Rodri is proving beyond a doubt that he is an irreplaceable gem.
