The summer soap opera Rodrygo-Real Madrid may be coming to an end! Put aside last season by Carlo Ancelotti last season and then by Xabi Alonso at the Club World Cup, the Brazilian striker is aware that his future will not be taking shape on the side of Madrid this season.

Coveted by large English stables or PSG throughout the transfer window, the player could finally take the direction of Manchester City, as indicated by Fabrizio Romano. Indeed, the Italian journalist reveals that the Citizens would have made the Brazilian their priority target for the next few days.

Only, if Manchester City wants to afford Rodrygo, under contract with Real Madrid until June 2028, the English club knows that it will have to pay a substantial sum. Indeed, Real Madrid will not let its 24 -year -old player go below 100 million euros.

And to prepare the coming of the Brazilian, the English club does not hesitate to get rid of some of its attackers. Jack Grenish should be loaned to Everton, Savinho could get involved in Tottenham and James Mcatee would be close to joining Nottingham Forest. All these departures would allow the Citizens' management to collect the sum necessary to convince the Real to sell his player.

For the moment, no discussion has been started between the two clubs as indicated Marca. But there is no doubt that the Sky Blues could very quickly get closer to their Spanish counterpart to try to attach the services of the player who pleases Pep Guardiola. However, they will have to face the competition since Arsenal and Liverpool would also be on the file.
