Real Madrid are preparing a massive offer for Manchester City midfielder Rodri, according to The Sun and Cadena SER.
The Spanish giants are reportedly ready to put €116 million on the table (around £98 million) to lure the 28-year-old, who remains under contract with City until 2027. It’s a bold move that could shake up the summer transfer market.
Rodri: Xabi Alonso’s Top Target
Despite having a strong midfield core with Tchouaméni, Camavinga, Valverde, and Güler, new manager Xabi Alonso has made it clear: he wants an elite defensive midfielder. For him, Rodri is the missing link—calm, technical, dominant, and experienced at the highest level.
City hesitate, Rodri listens
Rodri isn’t actively pushing for a move, but he’s not ignoring the Real Madrid interest either. The allure of playing for the Spanish giants could sway him, especially with a manager like Alonso now in charge.
Manchester City are not expected to let go easily, but if they show even a hint of openness, Real Madrid will make their move. Florentino Pérez wants another statement signing—and Rodri could be next.
