The Spanish press takes stock of the Rodri file at Real Madrid, with a fairly clear trend.
When you are winner of the Ballon d’Or, or pretender to the trophy, you find yourself fairly quickly linked to Real Madrid. This is what happens to Rodri, the one who had deprived Vinicius Jr and the Merengues of the coronation in 2024.
The Spanish international would now be in the viewfinder of Real Madrid, which would look for an element of his profile. A defensive midfielder whose qualities would better stick to the style of play desired by Xabi Alonso, which is not quite the case of Aurélien Tchouaméni.
Mundo Deportivo takes stock of the file, and announces this:
“The club very much appreciates the player and, in fact, it is the only one for which Real would be ready to pay a large sum. »»
Real has a plan for Rodri
However, there is no question for Real Madrid to pay the 115 million euros hoped for by Manchester City. This is why, in the Spanish capital, we think that the transfer will not take place this summer, even if the door remains open in case.
True to its method, Real will wait until Rodri approaches the end of his current contract (which ends in 2027), in order to place Man City in a less favorable position to negotiate. At the parallel, this will allow you to see if the Spanish international has recovered well from his serious knee injury last season.
