Gareth Bale is expecting “big changes” at Real Madrid, with more Rodrygo treatment being tipped as Xabi Alonso is not “scared to drop anyone”.

The defeat against Paris Saint-Germain and inconsistent performances during the previous campaign have raised doubts about the level of some players, prompting Xabi Alonso to address this matter promptly.

Real Madrid boss Xabi Alonso has reportedly already made a decision over the Rodrygo amid links to Arsenal. Arsenal have so far made three signings this summer, in the form of Kepa Arrizabalaga, Martin Zubimendi and Christian Norgaard. A fourth signing is imminent, with Noni Madueke expected to be announced in a deal from Chelsea soon.

Real Madrid boss Xabi Alonso says his Real Madrid side were better off with ‘different players’ after benching Arsenal target Rodrygo for a fifth game in a row.   The Brazil international’s future at the Spanish giants is looking increasingly bleak with the Gunners among the sides interested in signing him this summer.
