Real Madrid Opens Talks with Manchester City for Rodri

Real Madrid has initiated talks with Manchester City regarding a move for midfielder Rodri, according to Fabrizio Romano.

This development follows club president Florentino Perez giving his approval for such a transfer. It's believed that Real Madrid is prepared to offer between 50-60 million euros for the captain of the World Champion Spain squad. However, Manchester City is likely to demand a higher fee, despite the 30-year-old's contract expiring next summer. Meanwhile, Nicolo Schira reported days ago that Rodri has already agreed to a five-year deal with Real Madrid.
