Unless the situation changes again, FC Barcelona will welcome Rodri in the coming days. The Manchester City player has given his approval to join the Catalan club, after weeks where his name had been associated with a move to Real Madrid. According to the Iberian press, common ground was even found between the Catalans and City for a transfer worth 50 million euros. In search of his replacement, the Skyblues seem to have checked the name of a player… from Barça.
According to information from Mundo Deportivothe Mancunian club follows the profile of Tommy Marqués, a 19-year-old defensive midfielder from La Masia, the prestigious training center of the Catalan club. Winner of the Youth League in 2025, Marqués has only played two games with the first team under Hansi Flick. Barça is counting without separating this summer, as part of a transfer with a buyout clause. However, the club most advanced on this file seems to be Braga, who have been negotiating with the player for some time. Borussia Dortmund is also on his trail.
