Barcelona Reaches Agreement to Sign Rodri
Barcelona has reached a full agreement with Manchester City regarding the signing of Spanish midfielder Rodri, according to journalist Fabrizio Romano. The deal is now in its final stages as preparations are made for the player's transfer to the Catalan club.
This agreement comes after intensive negotiations between the two clubs in recent times, as Manchester City had previously rejected two offers from Barcelona, the first worth €45 million, and the second around €65 million.
According to journalist David Ornstein, Manchester City will receive €60 million as a fixed fee plus €11.5 million in easily achievable performance-related bonuses, along with an additional €5 million in other add-ons (totaling €76.5 million).
In the coming hours, the final procedures are expected to be completed for the official announcement of Rodri's transfer to Barcelona, in a deal through which the Catalan club aims to strengthen its midfield with one of the world's top players in his position.
Rudi is the fourth signing for the Catalan team this summer, following the acquisitions of Karim Adeyemi, Anthony Gordon, and Jesse Bissou.
