Sources: Rodrygo wants Madrid stay despite role
Briefly

Rodrygo has expressed dissatisfaction with playing out of position at Real Madrid, favoring the left side of the attack where he feels most effective. Sources indicate that he discussed this with club president Florentino Pérez, emphasizing he does not wish to leave the club despite rumors of Premier League interest. After making 30 LaLiga appearances this season, Rodrygo's camp is eager to understand incoming coach Xabi Alonso's plans for him before making any decisions regarding his future at Madrid.
Rodrygo no longer wants to play out of position at Real Madrid and prefers to start on the left-hand side of the attack, where he believes he performs best.
Sources told ESPN that Rodrygo's representatives have held talks with Madrid president Florentino Pérez about the forward's dissatisfaction with his positioning on the pitch.
Rodrygo believes that his form when picked on the left would justify playing there regularly, and he is tired of being used in various other attacking roles.
While Rodrygo has been picked frequently by Ancelotti this season, he has usually played on the right, with Vinícius Júnior and Kylian Mbappé preferred through the middle.
