Rodri has dropped a statement that is guaranteed to get Barcelona fans dreaming! 😱🔵🔴
When asked which of his former Manchester City teammates he would love to see wearing the Barça shirt, the Spanish midfielder reportedly had one name immediately in mind: Erling Haaland. 🇳🇴🔥
🗣️ Rodri: “An ex-teammate I’d like to see at Barcelona? Definitely Haaland.”
And honestly… imagine that! 🤯
Rodri is now part of Barcelona’s midfield after making his move from Manchester City, while Haaland continues to terrorise defenders in England. The Norwegian striker has already established himself as one of the most prolific goalscorers in European football, and his current numbers remain frightening. He recently reached 59 Champions League goals in just 59 appearances, including 36 for Manchester City. 😳⚽️
Even more recently, Haaland scored in Manchester City’s 5️⃣-3️⃣ victory over Sunderland, taking his record to five goals in five matches at the start of the campaign.
Now put that kind of striker inside Barça’s attacking system… 😮💨🔥
Imagine Haaland finishing chances created by Pedri, combining with Lamine Yamal, attacking crosses and through balls from the wings, while Rodri controls the midfield behind them. 🔵🔴💥
That is the kind of attack that would make defenders lose sleep! 😭🔥
Haaland’s physical presence would also give Barcelona something completely different. His combination of pace, strength, movement and ruthless finishing makes him an obvious focal point for any elite attack.
And Rodri knows exactly what he is talking about. He spent years playing alongside Haaland at Manchester City before making his Barcelona switch this summer. Barça officially presented Rodri as a new signing in August, with the midfielder saying the club suits his personality and that he wants to compete for major trophies, including the Champions League. 🏆🔵🔴
There is one important reality check, though: Rodri’s comment is not a transfer announcement or confirmation that Barcelona are pursuing Haaland. It is simply his personal choice of former teammate he would like to see at Barça.
Still, the fantasy is absolutely delicious. 🤤🔥
RODRI IN MIDFIELD. PEDRI CREATING. LAMINE YAMAL ON THE WING. HAALAND UP FRONT.
Barcelona fans, are we ready for this madness? 😭🔵🔴🔥
