Real Madrid Made Offer for Rodri, Despite Barcelona Pursuit

AI-synthesized · Bias removed · Facts only

Real Madrid reportedly made a €45 million offer for Manchester City’s Rodri, despite indications he prefers to join Barcelona. The move came after reports emerged that Rodri would not be renewing his contract with Manchester City and desired a return to Spain.

According to reports, once it became clear that Rodri would not be signing a new contract at Manchester City, it quickly became apparent that he wanted to return to Spain and preferably play for Real Madrid.

Los Blancos and Florentino Pérez, Real Madrid’s president, reportedly acted swiftly, submitting a €45 million bid for the player. However, the report indicates that Rodri’s preference remains a move to Barcelona, suggesting Real Madrid’s offer may not be enough to sway him. The reason for Rodri’s desire to return to Spain is not explicitly stated beyond his unwillingness to renew his contract with Manchester City.
