Our all-time leading marksman will bid a fond farewell at the end of the current campaign after a memorable ten years at the Club.


He has scored an incredible 257 goals in 385 appearances, winning four Premier League titles, one FA Cup and five League Cups in the process.

And while Rodrigo stressed that our unflinching desire for success is evident regardless, he admits that adding the Champions League to our trophy cabinet this season would feel particularly special for the squad.

“We have the motivation every single year,” the Spaniard pointed out.

“Sergio is a very important player for us. Of course, he deserves to go in the best way from this club.

“For me, it would be a dream to achieve this competition with him and the team.

“It would be the best present for him and everyone.”
