Manchester City transfer news: Citizens set surprising Rodri asking price amid Real Madrid interest ...Middle East

Rodri's future is totally uncertain today and Manchester City have reportedly set a surprising starting price for their midfielder, tracked by Real Madrid.

Rodri is experiencing a particular start to the season at Manchester City. The midfielder, who is coming off an almost blank season after his cruciate ligament rupture, has missed two matches due to knee pain. This does not seem serious for the 29-year-old player, but it is not reassuring internally.

Thus, the 2024 Ballon d'Or winner is a player with an uncertain future. It was planned that he would extend his contract last season, but his serious injury called everything into question. Currently under contract until June 2027 with Manchester City, the Sky Blues have planned to wait to see his evolution during the season before offering him a contract extension.

The start of the season is not reassuring and the hypothesis of a departure is beginning to take shape. Especially as in Spain, Real Madrid would reportedly be ready to pay out €150m (£128.4m) to recruit Rodri. Florentino Perez has been dreaming for several months of bringing back the Spanish midfielder and making him the new stalwart of his midfield.

Manchester City could sell Rodri for £65m in 2026

But to recruit the Spain international, Los Merengues may not need to break the bank. Indeed, according to Defensa Central, Manchester City are reportedly considering parting with Rodri next summer if he does not extend his contract this season. He will then be one year from the end of his contract and his price should be affordable.

The same source indicates that the Sky Blues would be ready to listen to offers around £65m (£56m). A surprising starting price for the penultimate Ballon d'Or winner, who is valued at €110m (£94m) by Transfermarkt, but which would be understandable with his contractual situation. It would nonetheless resemble a good deal for Real Madrid, if the Manchester player leaves behind his physical problems and regains his level from the 2023-24 season.
