Real Madrid Intensifies Efforts to Sign Manchester City Midfielder Rodri

Madrid. Spanish football club Real Madrid has intensified efforts to bring Spanish national team star and Manchester City midfielder Rodri into the team immediately after the World Cup.

According to media reports, Real Madrid has already made a final decision on signing Rodri.

According to French newspaper 'L'Equipe', club president Florentino Perez was initially not positive about this deal. However, after his thinking changed, the Real Madrid board has moved forward to bring Rodri in.

Madrid has considered Rodri as a suitable option to fill the role held by German star Toni Kroos, who retired two years ago. However, the two clubs have not yet reached an agreement on the player's price.

Real does not want to pay more than 60 million euros. On the other hand, Manchester City is firm on its demand of 100 million euros to sell Rodri.

On the other hand, 'Sky Sport' has claimed that the possibility of Rodri moving to Real Madrid is increasing in this summer transfer window. Secret talks were held between club officials and the player's agents at a restaurant in Madrid.

It is mentioned in the report that 'after the meeting, the club's board decided to continue the contract process'. Madrid is preparing to offer Rodri a contract until 2030, and work is currently underway to reach an agreement on personal terms with the player.
