Brazil coach Tite has no doubts about the potential of Rodrygo.

Santos whiz Rodrygo will remain in his homeland until next summer and upon turning 18 will move to Real Madrid.

Tite said, "He is only 17 but he is already similar to a 25-year-old player.

"Jair Ventura [Corinthians coach] told me 'he looks like a veteran player and is mature in his decision making'."

He has been left out of the Brazil Under-20 squad for their upcoming friendlies.
