Rodri Hernandez Transfer Plan Hinges on €60 Million Eduardo Camavinga Sale

Real Madrid are considering a major move for Manchester City midfielder Rodri Hernandez, but only if Eduardo Camavinga is sold during the summer transfer window. The Spanish giants would use the funds from a potential Camavinga departure to finance a deal for the Ballon d'Or-winning midfielder.

What happened?

According to Defensa Central, Real Madrid would only seriously consider signing Rodri Hernandez if they first receive around €60 million for Eduardo Camavinga. Camavinga himself is not actively seeking an exit, with the France international remaining under contract until 2029 and determined to fight for his place despite increased competition for minutes.

Why it matters for Rodri Hernandez

Jose Mourinho has identified Rodri Hernandez as the ideal player to strengthen Real Madrid's midfield after being impressed by his performances and leadership at the FIFA World Cup. However, despite the manager's admiration, the proposal has not received unanimous support inside the club. Real Madrid's hierarchy are not fully aligned, with some directors supporting Mourinho's recommendation while others remain unconvinced.

What comes next?

The Manchester City star has rediscovered his best form after recovering from a serious knee injury and has been one of the standout performers at the World Cup. Real Madrid would only move for Rodri Hernandez under one condition, with the club's president, Florentino Perez, ultimately deciding whether to pursue the deal. Camavinga's priority is to continue competing for a place at Real Madrid rather than pursue a move elsewhere, but his position may change if Mourinho clearly informs him that he is not part of the club's long-term plans or if an attractive proposal arrives from another top European club.
