Attention, Mourinho: World Cup's best player responds to PSG interest

Despite strong interest from PSG, Rodri reportedly declined to even hear the European champions' proposal, keeping his future open. This could mean continuing at Manchester City... or a return to Spain.

The Parisian club attempted to sway the midfielder, but the response was a clear "No, thank you." The club, presided over by Al Khelaifi, showed significant interest in the player, joining other prominent teams in the race, but the Spanish international flatly rejected the approach, as reported by the newspaper AS this Tuesday.

According to the same source, the captain of La Roja, widely considered the best player of the 2026 World Cup, didn't even entertain the terms of the offer presented to him. While he appreciates the interest from one of Europe's top clubs, his current decision points in a different direction. His future will not be in Paris, a decision also confirmed by Le Parisien, which reported that the player will not be joining Luis Enrique's squad.

With just one year remaining on his contract with the Citizens and holding the status of a World Cup winner, Rodri is at a pivotal moment in his career. A contract extension offer from the English club is on the table, but a return to Spain, specifically to reinforce José Mourinho's Real Madrid, also remains a distinct possibility. His continuation in Manchester will depend on the terms offered.

Having recently turned 30, Rodri believes his next professional move could be the culmination of an extraordinary career. For now, the player is ruling out a move to leagues like the Saudi Arabian league or MLS, prioritizing his sporting and personal interests. The coming days will therefore be crucial in defining his future.
