The past few days have been very eventful from a Real Madrid perspective, for the club has entered a position of power in two top transfer operations.

One, which surprisingly began last night, was the operation to sign Yan Diomande from RB Leipzig as an effort to strengthen the right flank.

The second, and more well-known operation they are involved in, is the one to bring Rodri from Manchester City back to Spain. After all, he is seen as the missing piece in the midfield puzzle.

Rodri’s desperation

As reported in a recent update provided by El Larguero, the Manchester City midfielder is desperate to sign for Real Madrid and return to Spain, to the point where he does not bother about the financial specifics.

The World Cup winner will reportedly accept any proposal thrown his way from Real Madrid without any fuss as long as they reach an agreement with his current club.

The player does not care about the money at this point in his career, and would do anything to secure his dream move back to Spain, specifically to the Spanish capital.

A useful renewal standoff

What has heavily helped Real Madrid in the entire Rodri saga is the player’s commitment to ensuring the move goes through. After all, Manchester City have been pushing for a renewal from their end.

The Blues continue to be hopeful of securing Rodri’s future beyond next season, but the player himself has been holding off talks in the hope of an exit this summer.

Real Madrid, meanwhile, remain in contact with his entourage and are proposing a lucrative contract that will see him at the club until 2030.

The big question, however, remains around the agreement between Real Madrid and Manchester City and the transfer fee that will be involved.

Rodri’s market value is relatively high after his Golden Ball-winning performance at the FIFA World Cup, where he led his country to their second-ever title.

Manchester City, thus, are expecting a massive payout along the lines of €100 million, but Los Blancos are pushing for a much lower fee in the €60 million ballpark.
