Real Madrid step up pursuit of Manchester City captain Rodri
Real Madrid have begun their push to sign Rodri this summer, with the Manchester City captain reportedly keen on the move despite City’s efforts to secure him on a new contract.
Real Madrid have launched an operation to sign Manchester City midfielder Rodri this summer as they intensify plans to strengthen their midfield.
Reports indicate the Spanish giants believe the 30-year-old is open to returning to La Liga, with the Spain captain entering the final year of his contract at the Etihad Stadium.
Manchester City remain determined to keep one of their most influential players and have already presented Rodri with a new contract offer.
However, the midfielder is understood to favour a switch to Real Madrid, although formal negotiations between the clubs have not yet begun. The uncertainty comes as Rodri also faces a spell on the sidelines after requiring back surgery.
