The Real Madrid winger spoke with Rodrygo about their jersey number changes.

Along with Rodrygo, Vinicius. There is Vinicius and Rodrygo. On the field and off, they are a pair that cannot be separated. At the same time, both Brazilians signed with Real Madrid during the same season. After suffering defeats at the hands of Karim Benzema, Marco Asensio, and Eden Hazard, the two are now compelled to make a move forward or face the consequences of their actions. The alteration in their numerals, which are now a ‘7’ for Vinicius and a ’11’ for Rodrygo, reflects something that has occurred among them. Two figures that have a significant amount of history for Los Blancos.

Two numbers are different from the others

According to Vinicius, “I am extremely thankful to be able to wear this jersey that a great number of other great players have worn.” “It was very important to me. Rodrygo said that it is a number that he has enjoyed singing ever since he was a child. There are a great number of football players who have played with those numbers at Madrid that spring to memory for both of them, but there is always one who serves as a reference and a role model for them.

I have watched all of Cristiano Ronaldo’s games, and he has ushered in a new era at the club, which is why he is a source of motivation for me. For me, he is a role model. Rodrygo, on the other hand, continues to play for Paco Gento by saying, “He won six Champions Leagues, and it would be an honor to be able to stay close to that achievement.”

When they were questioned about each other, they were seized with a smile that was both naturally occurring and impossible to avoid. Rodrygo’s understanding of the game, his quality, and what he performs on the field are the things that the former Flamengo player considers to be the most admirable aspects of his character. An additional point that Rodrygo makes is that “the best thing about Vini is that he always goes one-on-one, wherever it is.”

Last but not least, they were asked to provide a word that would best describe the criminal duo that they constitute. According to Vinicius, it is “incredible,” while Rodrygo describes it as “a complete duo.”
