Rodri is going under the knife, and the Manchester City coach is not even thinking about transferring to Real

Rodri, kapetan Španjolske i osvajač Zlatne lopte na Svjetskom prvenstvu, trenutno se vraća u najbolju formu nakon ozljeda koje su ga ometale tokom posljednjih sezona. Trener Manchester Citya, Maresca, potvrdio je da će Rodri uskoro podvrgnuti operaciji, nakon koje će proći period oporavka. Iako su mediji pretpostavljali mogući transfer Rodria u Real Madrid, Maresca je odbio komentirati njegovu budućnost u klubu, navodeći da su takvi spekulacije normalni uz njegovo izuzetno visoko rangu u nogometu.

The article discusses ongoing summer transfer market activities in European football leagues, focusing on several high-profile clubs seeking new players. Barcelona and Manchester City are both interested in attacking midfielder Eli Junior Kouopou from Bournemouth, though the latter club is reluctant to sell him. Meanwhile, Chelsea is considering acquiring Danny Welbeck from Brighton and has increased its offer for Bournemouth’s defender Alex Scott after an initial bid was rejected. Real Madrid is preparing a bid between €50–60 million for Rodri, who has agreed to personal terms with the Spanish giants but declined Manchester City’s contract extension offer. Rodri suffered injuries last season, limiting his appearances. Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) is targeting Ferran Torres, offering between €40–50 million for the Spain international, who scored the winning goal at the World Cup.

L'Equipe: Real is going for the best player of the World Cup.

Real Madrid is seriously considering signing Rodri from Manchester City, according to reports citing L'Équipe and Goal.com. The club sees Rodri as a crucial player to regain control of midfield, viewing him as a potential successor to Toni Kroos. Secret talks reportedly took place at a Madrid restaurant between Real representatives and Rodri's agents, with negotiations ongoing. Real is preparing a contract valid until 2030, while Rodri remains open to returning to Spain. However, the main obstacle is the transfer fee: Real is willing to pay up to €60 million, whereas Manchester City demands around €100 million. Rodri's current market value is estimated at €55 million by Transfermarkt. Real's interest intensified after Rodri led Spain to World Cup victory, which changed some board members' opinions despite initial skepticism from President Florentino Pérez.

The clash of the titans, in Paris, was a total fury!

Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain have been in a tense rivalry over the transfer of 19-year-old winger Yan Diomande from RB Leipzig. PSG had already reached an agreement with Diomande, but Real Madrid reportedly offered more than €100 million for his signature, angering PSG's Qatari owners. In response, PSG attempted to complicate matters by making a stronger offer for Spanish midfielder Rodri, who is also in talks with Real Madrid.

The situation highlights the intense competition between these two European powerhouses in the summer transfer market.

Manchester City are not crying for Rodri, they're hurrying to bring in a World Cup hit-maker.

Manchester City trenutno se suočava s teškom decizijom o budućnosti svojeg ključnog igrača Rodrija, koji se sve više povezuje s Real Madridom. Klub sada promatra mogućnost preuzimanja mladog veznjaka Ayyouba Bouaddija, koji je bio deo marokanske ekipa na Svjetskom prvenstvu. Bouaddi bi mogao biti važan dodatak za City, posebno ako Rodri ne ostane. Iako su razgovori o transferu u toku, nije jasno da li će se dogoditi ove godine ili tek iduće. Real Madrid već ima kontakt s Manchester Citym oko transfera, a cijena može varirati između 50 i 70 milijuna eura. U međuvremenu, City je već uspjelo preuzeti Elliota Andersona za ogroman iznos, što pokazuje njihovu sposobnost da prave velike transferne poteze.
