Rodri Hernandez Signs New Contract Boost
Rodri Hernandez will not leave Manchester City this summer, according to Guillem Balague on the BBC.
Real Madrid have been given a boost in their pursuit of Rodri Hernandez, with the player's contract talks with Manchester City ongoing.
The Spanish midfielder has been a target for Real Madrid for at least 18 months, but his cruciate ligament injury put the transfer on hold.
Rodri's current contract with Manchester City will expire in two years, and the player is in no hurry to renew his deal.
Manchester City are looking to make Rodri their second-best paid player after Erling Haaland, with contract talks already opened.
Next summer could be a happier hunting ground for Real Madrid, with Rodri's contract set to have just one year left.
Real Madrid President Florentino Perez is not in favor of spending big this summer on the position, unless they can sign Rodri.
And if Real Madrid are to bid for Rodri, a prerequisite will be money from transfers, likely requiring an exit for Rodrygo Goes.
The player has already turned down offers from City to extend his deal by two years, according to Cadena SER.
So, Rodri's future remains uncertain, with Manchester City and Real Madrid waiting to see what happens next.
But one thing is clear: Rodri Hernandez is a key player for both teams, and his contract situation will be closely watched.
