The Premier League club is investigating the possibility of relocation and could soon make a concrete offer. Rodrygo is one of the players that Real Madrid is open to sale: this has made the Brazilian an attractive option for various top clubs in Europe, despite its high price tag, around € 120 million.
Man City also supervises the situation: Pep Guardiola is a great admirer of Rodrygo and sees him as a strong fit for his system. For now City has not taken a step, but the player stays on their list.
