The Spaniard staked his claim for a place in Xabi Alonso's team following injuries to Kylian Mbappe and Endrick, and scored four times in the tournament. Alonso has deployed Garcia in a number of different roles in attack this season, with the striker having proven to be a dependable deputy for the side.

He played twice for Spain's U-21s in their European Championship qualifiers in September. Real Madrid star reveals Cristiano Ronaldo influence in transfer decisionReal Madrid forward Rodrygo has revealed that Cristiano Ronaldo played a key role in causing him to sign with the club from Santos. The Brazil international is one of Los Blancos' stars, with more than 100 appearances to his name for the Spanish giants. Rodrygo revealed to Diario AS that his love for the Spanish giants stemmed from his experiences watching them as a youngster. The 24-year-old pointed out that he received the club's shirt as a gift from his father, and Cristiano Ronaldo's displays for the club also made him a fan. “My father gave it to me after a trip his team made to Germany. When he returned, he gave it to me, and from that moment I identified with the team, the club, and its achievements. There were also many Brazilians on the squad, so I started following them. And especially when Cristiano arrived. I would devour every Real Madrid match just to watch him. In Brazil I support Santos, but as a child I always liked Madrid. It was my dream for the day I would play in Europe", he said (via World Soccer Talk). Rodrygo was strongly linked with a move away from the Santiago Bernabeu in the summer after he appeared to fall out of favour under Carlo Ancelotti. The forward has remained at Real Madrid, making 11 appearances across all competitions so far this season.
