Real Madrid are reportedly planning for the future with Rodrygo remaining part of their plans despite continued speculation over his future. The Spanish giants have no intention of selling the Brazilian winger in January and are instead focused on building a squad capable of competing at the highest level for years to come.
The club’s long-term planning is expected to involve several key players, including Arda Güler and goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois, alongside potential new signings. Arda is also closing in on a new contract, with the Turkish midfielder expected to sign an agreement keeping him at Real Madrid until 2031.

The decision to retain Rodrygo comes at a difficult moment for the Brazil international. Real Madrid have confirmed that Rodrygo has undergone ACL surgery, meaning he now faces a lengthy road to recovery before returning to competitive action. His rehabilitation will be carefully managed, with the club expected to avoid rushing his comeback.
Despite the injury setback, Real Madrid’s stance on Rodrygo’s future remains clear. The club continues to consider him an important part of its plans and does not intend to entertain a January transfer.
With young talents such as Güler developing alongside established figures like Courtois, Real Madrid are already looking beyond the current campaign. The club’s strategy appears centred on maintaining a strong core while adding quality through new signings.
For Rodrygo, the immediate priority is recovery and returning to full fitness. Once he is back, Real Madrid will hope the Brazilian can once again demonstrate the qualities that made him an important player in their long-term project.
