Barcelona and Manchester City are still in direct talks over Rodri, but Fabrizio Romano has clarified that this isn’t simply a case of Barça sending formal bids and City replying with written rejections.
🗣️ The discussions are happening through direct, verbal communication between the two clubs, with both sides continuing to negotiate the structure and value of the potential deal.
Barcelona remain determined to bring the Spanish midfield maestro back to La Liga, while Manchester City are holding firm on their valuation. Recent reports indicate that Barça have made a new verbal proposal worth around €60 million plus add-ons, while City are pushing for a higher figure.
🤝 So, there is still a gap — but crucially, the dialogue has not stopped.
Rodri reportedly wants Barcelona, and Barça remain confident that an agreement can eventually be reached. The next stage could come down to finding the right fee and add-on structure. ⏳💰🔵🔴
🔥 Could Rodri really be heading back to Spain?
