Rodrygo Goes, a forward for Real Madrid has agreed to a new deal through 2028, the Spanish team announced on Thursday.

The Brazilian winger decided to extend his contract until 2027 in the same week that fellow countryman Vinicius Junior also committed to the Santiago Bernabeu.

"Real Madrid and Rodrygo have agreed the extension of the player's contract, keeping him at the club until June 30, 2028," a statement from Madrid read.

Although the 22-year-old Rodrygo has not been at his best this season, he is still an essential member of Madrid's squad. In May, he scored two goals against Osasuna to help Los Blancos win their first Copa del Rey since 2014.
