Rodrygo Silva de Goes (Brazilian Portuguese: [ʁoˈdɾigu ˈsiwvɐ dʒi gɔjs];[3] born 9 January 2001), simply known as Rodrygo, is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays as a winger for Spanish club Real Madrid and the Brazil national team.

He began his career with Santos, where he played 80 games and scored 17 goals before a €45 million transfer to Real Madrid in 2019. On international level, Rodrygo made his senior debut for Brazil in 2019, aged only 18.

Club career[]

Santos[]

Born in Osasco, São Paulo, Rodrygo joined Santos' youth setup in 2011 at the age of ten, initially assigned to the futsal team.[1] In March 2017, with the first team regulars in Peru for a Copa Libertadores match against Sporting Cristal, he was called up to the first team by manager Dorival Júnior to complete training.[4]

On 21 July 2017, Rodrygo signed his first professional contract, after agreeing to a five-year deal.[5] On 1 November, he was promoted to the main squad by interim manager Elano.[6]

Rodrygo made his first team – and Série A – debut on 4 November 2017, coming on as a late substitute for Bruno Henrique in a 3–1 home win against Atlético Mineiro.[7] The following 25 January he scored his first senior goal, netting a last-minute winner in a 2–1 Campeonato Paulista away win against Ponte Preta.[8]

Rodrygo made his Copa Libertadores debut on 1 March 2018, replacing Eduardo Sasha in a 2–0 away loss against Real Garcilaso; aged 17 years and 50 days, he became the youngest player of Santos to appear in the competition.[9] Fifteen days later he scored his first goal in the tournament, netting his team's second through an individual effort in a 3–1 win against Nacional at the Pacaembu Stadium; at the age of 17 years, two months and six days, he became the youngest Brazilian to score in the competition[10] before his record was broken by fellow Santos youth graduates Kaiky and Ângelo.[11]

Rodrygo scored his first goal in the main category of Brazilian football on 14 April 2018, netting the last in a 2–0 home win against Ceará.[12] On 3 June, he scored a hat-trick and also assisted Gabriel's last goal in a 5–2 home routing of Vitória.[13]

On 26 July 2018, Rodrygo changed his jersey number from 43 to 9 (a number he already wore during the Libertadores).[14] For the 2019 campaign, he again switched numbers, now to jersey 11, previously worn by fellow youth graduate Neymar.[15]

Real Madrid[]

On 15 June 2018, Real Madrid reached an agreement with Santos for the transfer of Rodrygo, with the player joining Los Blancos in June 2019 and signing until 2025.[16][17] The rumoured fee was of €45 million,[18] with Santos receiving €40 million as the club owned 80% of his rights with the rest owned by Rodrygo's agents.[19]

On 25 September 2019, Rodrygo made his first team debut and scored his first league goal against Osasuna within a mere minute.[20] He scored his first hat-trick, being a perfect hat-trick, and gave an assist for the club on 6 November, aged 18 years and 301 days old, against Galatasaray in a 6–0 win in the 2019–20 UEFA Champions League season.[21] The second youngest ever to score a hat-trick in the competition, he is also the first player born in the 21st century to score in the tournament.[22] In his first season, he managed to make 19 appearances, while scoring two goals during the league season, as Real Madrid won the 2019–20 La Liga.[23] On 3 November 2020, Rodrygo scored the winning goal in a 3–2 victory over Inter Milan in the 2020–21 UEFA Champions League.[24]

International career[]

On 30 March 2017, Rodrygo was called up to Brazil under-17s for the year's Montaigu Tournament.[25] He made his debut in the championship by scoring his side's only goal in a 2–1 loss against Denmark, and netted two more against Cameroon and United States.[26]

On 7 March 2018, Rodrygo and Santos teammate Yuri Alberto were called up to the under-20s,[27] but both were cut from the squad six days later after a request from his club's president.[28]

In November 2019, Rodrygo was called up for the first time to the Brazil senior team, for the Superclásico de las Américas against rivals Argentina in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.[29] In the 1–0 loss on 15 November, he replaced Willian for the final 20 minutes.[30]
