FC Barcelona has taken its move for Rodri to the completion stage after Manchester City accepted a third and final offer worth €76.5 million, equivalent to about £65.4 million or $87.8 million. Rodri has arrived in Barcelona for a medical and is expected to sign a four-year contract, ending a seven-season spell at City and returning the Spain midfielder to La Liga for the first time since 2019. The transfer followed two rejected Barcelona bids, reported as €45 million and then around €60 million, before City accepted a structure of roughly €60 million upfront plus performance-related bonuses. Rodri is expected to be presented at Spotify Camp Nou ahead of the Joan Gamper Trophy match. The move gives Barcelona an experienced holding midfielder, while City are treating his departure as part of a broader midfield rebuild rather than something that can be solved by a single direct replacement.
