Ricardo Rodriguez would be open to a move from Wolfsburg to Real Madrid, according to the defender’s father.

The 23-year-old Switzerland international is considered one of Europe’s brightest prospects and did his reputation no harm on Wednesday night when he netted from the penalty spot in the German’s shock 2-0 win over Los Blancos in the first leg of their Champions League quarter final tie.

With doubts over Danilo’s long-term future at the club and with Alvaro Arbeloa likely to leave at the end of the current campaign, Real could be on the lookout for a new full back and Rodriguez ticks many boxes.

Speaking to Cadena Cope, Jose Manuel Rodriguez said he had spoken to Real president Florentino Perez as well as Emilio Butragueno.

“I met with Florentino Perez on Wednesday, and with Butragueno, too. We spoke a little, not much. We were talking, but not about football things. He said congratulations, that I had a good player. Maybe with time he might be able to go to Madrid. He would be pleased,” he said.

And he added: “My son wants to go to a bigger team. He wants a career in a bigger team and Spain would be a great option.”
