Rodrygo plans to challenge for starting spot at Real Madrid

Real Madrid winger Rodrygo is working to regain full fitness following an injury. The Brazilian remains committed to the club despite increased competition for attacking roles under Jose Mourinho. The team has secured three victories in its first three LaLiga matches of the season. Following the arrival of Yan Diomande, the right wing position now features multiple options including Brahim Diaz and Endrick. Rodrygo may look to earn minutes on the left flank as an alternative to Vinicius Jr. The forward is expected to return to the squad around the end of the year as he fights for his place in the starting lineup.
