Real Madrid interested in signing Manchester City superstar

Manchester City were recently linked with a move for Rodrygo, as a potential replacement for Julian Alvarez, who will be wearing Atletico Madrid colours this season. But it looks like the Brazilian international is not interested in a move away from Santiago Bernabeu right now and will be staying put at Real Madrid for the time being despite question marks over his place in the starting XI following the arrival of Kylian Mbappe.

While Rodrygo is not headed to the English club, it looks like one of Manchester City's players is on the radar of Real Madrid. One who might arguably be the best in the world right now.

As reported by CaughtOffside, Rodri is on Real Madrid’s list of potential candidates for the future. He has attracted the club's attention with his outstanding performances for Manchester City in recent seasons.

Rodri is expected to be one of the contenders for the Ballon d'Or. He was key to Manchester City winning the Premier League and then guided Spain to glory at EURO 2024. A year earlier, he had also scored the Champions League-winning goal against Inter Milan.

Rodri is vital to this current Manchester City. They have big names like Kevin De Bruyne and Erling Haaland, but it might be the Spaniard who is the most important part of Pep Guardiola's plans.

Of course, Rodri is no stranger to the Spanish league, having come up through the ranks and played for both Villarreal and Atletico Madrid before his move to Manchester City. So, it would not take him much time to adjust if he was to make the move to Real Madrid.

Manchester City are not known to part ways with their best players in their prime. But at the same time, they seem more than accommodating if someone wants to leave.
