Los Blancos have formed yet another star-studded attacking lineup, with World Cup winner Mbappe being the latest 'Galactico' to join the squad at Santiago Bernabeu.
There has been much debate about what the French international can accomplish in a partnership that could rival the legendary 'BBC' and 'MSN' frontlines, which previously included Karim Benzema, Gareth Bale, Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez, and Neymar.
Madrid's 'BMV' was unable to score in their 2024-25 La Liga opener against Mallorca, with Rodrygo finding the net to secure a 1-1 draw.
Rodrygo unhappy with 'BMV' acronym
The Brazil international has stirred up controversy with a WhatsApp message implying that he deserves more recognition.
The controversial message stated via Goal:
“Hi guys, yesterday the result was not what we wanted. In La Liga every point makes the difference in the end. I'm happy with the goal and with the growth of the team. Last week they talked about the trio of Bellingham, Mbappe and Vini, but they are going to have to add the R of Rodrygo to that acronym. We have a quartet of attackers and the rest of the team. They all have their importance in the games and will show their value in the different competitions in which we participate. The week will be full of hard work until our next match at the Bernabeu.”Rodrygo deletes WhatsApp message
The post has since been deleted after failing to elicit the response Rodrygo anticipated.
The Athletic confirmed the authenticity of the message, and the South American's representative recommended its removal to maintain harmony within the squad in the Spanish capital.
