Madrid, Spain – E be like say Real Madrid coach, Xabi Alonso, don provide some tea on wetin dey happen for the club as dem dey prepare for the World Club Cup. Kylian Mbappé, the superstar wey everybody dey yarn about, no dey fit play against Salzburg because he no recover well yet. Wetin happen? According to Xabi, as dem just see am run for training, him no dey fit match the competitive levels wey the team dey expect. In him words, “He has a point of weakness to play at the level we need.” (E be like say Mbappé still need small time to ginger well before him go dey shine).
But no be only Mbappé dey give the coach headache. Rodrygo Goes don turn the center of attention as the market dey look am with radar. E no try play for the last match against Pachuca, and this matter fit change wetin clubs dey think about am. Xabi talk say him go still need Rodrygo for the tournament, but make e no slack because if him no show for pitch, na so dem go take forget am.
Xabi dey optimistic as e say the main gist for the World Club Cup na to win and show say Real Madrid dey among the best. E talk say dem wan make sure say dem win the group H, even though dem sabi say e go lead dem to face some big boys like Manchester City if dem reach the knockout stage. (E be like say Xabi dey carry plenty heads as e dey plan.)
As e dey now, new signing Dean Huijsen dey impress the gaffer, as him don show say him fit deliver quick-fast. Xabi don nyan say, “Without doubt, Huijsen na big player, and we go make sure say him no chill too much.” And wetin be this? Rodrygo don dey hear rumors wey say him fit leave if club wan do more buy. What kind wahala be this? With the price tag of €90 million, e clear say dem wan use am do some big transaction. (E get as e be for football, upgrading no dey stop even if your name na Rodrygo).
Alonso don also talk say this World Club Cup dey show the competitive level outside Europe. “This competition dey fresh and very demanding, we go push ourselves to the limit,” him add. Na so the matter dey unfold as coaches dey reason how their players fit shine, especially when dem gat contracts wey dey hang for the balance. E go be interesting sight to see how everything go play out for dis tournament and whether Rodrygo fit catch the eyes of top teams as dem dey look for new stars. (If Xabi sabi wetin e dey do, e go find way show how far Rodrygo fit go during dis tournament).
