Rodri Ballon d'Or, the hidden role of Luis Enrique

Real Madrid put Rodri rumors to rest. Despite his talent and his Ballon d’Or, the Spanish midfielder from Manchester City is not among Florentino Pérez’s priorities.

Rumors sending Manchester City’s Spanish midfielder Rodri to Real Madrid appear to be dissipating. According to information from Marcathe Madrid club does not plan to recruit the 2024 Ballon d’Or. In question: the recent injury to Rodri, victim of a ruptured cruciate ligament, and the different strategic priorities of the Merengues.

Real president Florentino Pérez remains looking for a successor to Toni Kroos, but it appears the 28-year-old Spaniard is not the one. This decision could also be influenced by the recent extension of Pep Guardiola at the head of Manchester City, reinforcing the stability of the English club.

A Real Madrid looking elsewhere

Despite his temporary absence from the field, Rodri remains one of the best in his position. If Madrid is refraining from concluding such a transfer for the moment, the club is not turning a blind eye to other options to strengthen its midfield. Case to be continued, but for the moment Rodri seems destined to continue his adventure in England.
