Man City ready to break the bank for Rodri

Man City: Man United ready to break the bank for Rodri

The best player of the 2026 World Cup, Rodri, is reportedly back on Real Madrid’s radar. But Manchester City won’t give in without a fight.

At Real Madrid, many believe that Rodri would be a major reinforcement for the heart of Los Blancos’ midfield. The player himself is said to be highly tempted by the prospect of playing at the Bernabéu. His contract with Manchester City expires in just one year.

🚨🇪🇸 Rodri would love a return to Spain and dreams of Real Madrid, clear since months.

At same time, Florentino Pérez has always blocked this deal or any negotiations for Rodri this summer.

According to information from Radio Marca, Manchester City has no intention of sitting idly by. The City board has already put a massive financial offer on the table for the 2026 World Cup champion in an effort to convince him to stay and extend his contract.
