曼城要€80m先放,皇馬不會俾多€50m
Real Madrid have reportedly approached Manchester City for the first time to discuss a potential deal for Rodri during this summer's transfer window.
Los Blancos are believed to be determined to sign Rodri, with the Spanish club's president Florentino Perez giving his approval to a move for the Spain international.
Paris Saint-Germain have also been credited with an interest in the midfielder, but it is understood that Real Madrid are firmly at the head of the queue.
According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, Real Madrid have approached Man City to discuss Rodri for the first time.
Romano claims that 'verbal discussions' between the two clubs are ongoing, with Los Blancos indicating that they are prepared to pay over €50m (£43m) for his services.
Man City are not in a strong position when it comes to Rodri's future given that the midfielder's contract is due to expire at the end of next season.
Rodri was the star player at the 2026 World Cup, helping his country to win the trophy, and it is believed that he is a dream midfield target for Real Madrid this summer.
The 30-year-old has undergone surgery on a minor back complaint following Spain's World Cup success, but he is expected to be back in training before Man City's clash with Arsenal in the Community Shield on August 16.
Whether Rodri is still with Man City at that point remains to be seen, as Real Madrid push to bring him to Bernabeu this summer.

80M 就唔要啦
The president has changed his mind and gives green light for formal contacts between clubs after approaching his agents.
Rodri dreams of Real Madrid and he’s been pushing for long time with deal now in clubs’ hands as negotiations will follow.
Real Madrid indicated to Man City they’re ready to pay more than €𝟓𝟎𝐌 for Rodri to join now - City likely to ask for more.
Manchester City did not reply yet - as they expect also other clubs to join the race, but Rodri gives priority to Real Madrid.
