Barcelona have joined the race to sign Rodri from Manchester City, according to AS.
The Spain international, who won this year’s World Cup with his country, had looked set for a move to Real Madrid this summer.
However, Barcelona have now shown interest and could beat their rivals to the midfielder’s signature.
The final decision now rests with Rodri, who will choose which of the two LaLiga clubs he wants to represent next season.
Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano wrote on X: “Barcelona have made contact with Rodri’s camp and also with Manchester City about possible move.
“Real Madrid have been in talks with City for weeks but #MCFC didn’t accept to proceed immediately as he felt more clubs were joining the race.
“Its up to the player,” he said.
