Manchester City Set to Initiate New Contract Negotiations with Rodri

Manchester City are gearing up to start discussions regarding a new contract for their midfielder, Rodri.

Real Madrid’s Interest in Rodri

The Spanish player has reportedly become a potential target for Real Madrid as they eye the 2026 transfer window. According to the Sunday Express, the Spanish giants are ready to present an impressive offer of €140 million in hopes of persuading City to let go of Rodri, who recently claimed the Ballon d’Or.

City’s Position on Rodri

Despite the interest from Real Madrid, Manchester City has no intention of parting with Rodri. With his current contract running until 2027, the club finds itself in a favorable position. Instead, City aims to initiate negotiations with Rodri to extend and enhance his existing contract.

City’s strategy includes significantly improving Rodri’s terms to encourage him to postpone any ambitions he may have of returning to Spain.
