Manchester City have made a surprise “bombshell” offer for La Liga Champion Real Madrid forward, according to reports, as Pep Guardiola targets an unprecedented five Premier league titles in a row.
The Citizens won the league over Arsenal in the final game of last season to become Champions for an incredible fourth consecutive season. However, the Gunners are trying to bolster their squad for next season, it doesn’t appear as though the Manchester side want to, with sources suggesting that they’re willing to forgo signing any new players.
Kevin De Bruyne has been linked to leaving, in the event the legendary Belgian player does, they may be bringing in a great player in the other way.
City make offer for Rodrygo
According to TEAMtalk, Manchester City has made Real Madrid star Rodrygo, an incredible offer that also includes De Bruyne and Julian Alvarez.
Citing unnamed reports in Spain, Rodrygo is valued in comparism to that of the two players, whose combined valuation is £118 million.
De Bruyne has been linked to Saudi Arabia, and Rodrygo will have competition for a position from players like Endrick and Kylian Mbappe, as well as from Vinicius Jr., Jude Bellingham, and Arda Guler.
Rodrygo’s willingness to move camp from Spain to England is yet to be known, as we wait to see how the transfer window unfolds after the ongoing Euros.
Manchester City are expected to be strongly busy in the transfer window, with a lot of areas needing to be strengthened if they are to maintain their challenge next season.
With a key player like De Bruyne looking like he could leave and players like Ederson Moraes and Bernardo Silva also considering their future at the club. It remains to be seen which players would exit the Etihad, but it is looking likely regardless that there would be a lot of squad bolstering.
Rodrygo will come in as a player that will help improve the quality at Manchester City but it remains to be seen if Real Madrid would be willing to sell and if Pep Guardiola’s side will equally be willing to splash the cash as well.
