If Alonso really lets Rodrygo go and Valverde is made RW, it is the same as destroying the line-up. While Valverde is more suitable in the CMF position which always gives a very good contribution. I am very sure Alonso has great ambitions after seeing the contribution of young players Arda and Garcia when appearing in the FIFA Club World Cup, making the coach want to use young players as Madrid's strongest engine. In fact, Rodrygo is a very good partner for Vinicius when appearing on the field. Hopefully this news will only be a rumor and Alonso does not really do all this.
Xabi Alonso is still trying to rotate his team players to see their specialties or who is good at which position. So that's why he is using Velverda's right-winger position. Like, mainly he is using 3-1-4-2 in which Alexander Arnold will work on the right overlap parallel to Velverda by making a run to help him with crosses towards the box. Now we don't know if Xabi Alonso will use these tactics for the rest of the season or if he is just estimating the player efficiency.
However, Xabi Alonso attitude towards Rodrigo is not too good, like he didn't want him to be part of his plan for next season. You need to understand that it not a rumor it a legit report....
