Manchester City: Enzo Maresca has found the ideal replacement for Rodri

Rodri could leave Manchester City this summer and head to FC Barcelona. Manchester City has already begun the process of finding his replacement.

Having been linked with Real Madrid for weeks, Rodri now appears to be closing in on a move to FC Barcelona, where a plan is in place to facilitate his arrival despite the Catalan club’s financial struggles. Aware they are set to lose their midfield general, the Sky Blues have already activated several leads to secure his replacement.

According to information from Sky Italia, one name stands out in the mind of new coach Enzo Maresca: Enzo Fernandez. The Italian tactician dreams of reuniting with the Argentine international, whom he previously coached at Chelsea. The two enjoy an excellent relationship, a key factor that could tip the scales if Manchester City decides to make a move in the coming weeks.
