Álvaro Rodríguez Set to Depart Real Madrid for More Playing Time
Álvaro Rodríguez has returned to Real Madrid following his loan spell, but his stay at the club is expected to be short-lived. The 20-year-old Uruguayan striker has acknowledged the need to seek regular playing opportunities elsewhere to foster his development.In a recent interview with ‘Post united’, Rodríguez expressed his ambition: “I am 20 years old, I think I have to leave, I can’t wait for the first team much more. I will follow my way with the aim of returning. My dream is to play at Real Madrid and I will fight to get it, but for that I have to leave.”

Rodríguez also commented on his relationship with the Real Madrid coaching staff, noting a greater level of interaction with Davide Ancelotti, son and assistant to head coach Carlo Ancelotti, compared to Carlo himself. “Ancelotti spoke little with me. The one who spoke the most was Davide, for whom I have a special affection. Ancelotti is a leader and lets the players’ costumes [personalities] be,” he stated. These remarks suggest the club’s environment where young players must earn their place through talent, patience, and sacrifice, a demanding path at a club of Real Madrid’s stature.
