Spanish journalist Ramón Álvarez de Mon has revealed new developments regarding Real Madrid’s interest in signing Manchester City midfielder Rodri during the upcoming transfer window.

According to the report, the Spanish midfielder is closer to joining the Madrid side than many believe. The interest from Real Madrid is no longer seen as simple monitoring, but rather as a serious option within the club’s plans to strengthen the midfield and restore balance to the team.

Álvarez also noted that current indications suggest that discussions between the involved parties are more advanced than what has been publicly reported in the media. The player himself is reportedly open to the idea of joining Real Madrid and starting a new chapter at the Santiago Bernabéu.

From a financial perspective, the journalist explained that the potential deal may not exceed €50 million, particularly because Rodri has only one year remaining on his contract with Manchester City, which could facilitate a possible transfer.

However, one of the main points of debate within Real Madrid concerns the player’s age. Some club officials prefer to closely monitor his physical condition for the remainder of the season before making a final decision.
