For the first time since 2019–20, Manchester City will have to get by without Rodri commanding the midfield—and new boss Enzo Maresca has reportedly circled Liverpool’s Alexis Mac Allister as a potential replacement.
Rodri already landed in Barcelona on Monday after reportedly signing a deal worth up to $87.8 million (€76.5 million at the time of the agreement) with the defending Spanish champions. The newly crowned World Cup winner snubbed both City and Real Madrid to start a new chapter of his career in Catalonia alongside many of his Spain teammates.
