Real Madrid has some positive news in that forward Rodrygo Goes has returned to team practice as the club looks to rebound from their preseason loss to Barcelona.

According to Mario Cortegana of The Athletic, the 22-year-old gifted attacker has resumed regular training with the rest of the team today as they prepare for the last preseason game against Juventus.

Rodrygo, like Ferland Mendy, was absent from Real Madrid’s Sunday training sessions.

The Frenchman, who is suffering from yet another physical setback, is expected to remain out for at least a month.

However, Rodrygo has returned to training and is now taking part in sessions with the rest of the team, indicating that Los Blancos have had some success in that area.

Rodrygo’s talent and quality were never in doubt, but he has been overshadowed by Vinicius Jr. and Karim Benzema during his time at Real Madrid.

The 22-year-old is set for a fantastic season and will play a considerably more important role for Carlo Ancelotti’s side now that the Frenchman has left.

Rodrygo had his finest season to date in 2022-2023, with 57 appearances across all competitions and 19 goals and 11 assists.

When Benzema was injured or taking a break, the Brazilian international had to step in as a center forward on several occasions during the 2017-2018 season.

Rodrygo will almost certainly need to play in a central position far more frequently in the coming season as Real Madrid’s only acknowledged striker.

since a result, the 22-year-old’s return to training after missing yesterday’s session is promising, since he has to be ready for the challenges that the forthcoming campaign will provide.

Real Madrid’s preseason tour of the United States concludes on Wednesday night with a friendly against Juventus.
