Guardiola continues to push for signing Rodrigo, and Real Madrid is contemplating a swap deal, though they recognize it will be challenging. With Julian Alvarez’s departure from Manchester City imminent, Guardiola is adamant about securing Rodrigo as his replacement for the Argentine.
According to Spanish newspaper Defensa Central, Real Madrid is firm in their stance: they have no intention of selling the Brazilian. They see him as a key player for the team’s future and thus are not open to Guardiola’s proposed swap. However, while they are not interested in trading for Julian Alvarez, they might consider a deal involving Haaland, as he is the only Manchester City player Real Madrid believes could fit into their squad at this time.
They doubt that the English team will agree, but it’s the only way Guardiola can acquire Rodrigo. The reality is that Rodrigo’s departure would require a transfer deal, and several conditions must be met for this to occur. Firstly, Rodrigo must request to leave, and secondly, an offer exceeding 120 million euros must be received. Without meeting these two conditions, his departure will be unlikely.It appears that Pep Guardiola is determined to bring Real Madrid’s Rodrigo to Manchester City as a replacement for the likely departing Julian Alvarez. Despite Guardiola’s interest, Real Madrid is reluctant to part with Rodrigo, viewing him as a critical component of their future plans.
Real Madrid has made it clear that they have no interest in a swap deal involving Julian Alvarez. However, they might consider a deal if Erling Haaland were included, recognizing him as the only City player who could fit into their squad. Nevertheless, Madrid understands that convincing Manchester City to agree to such a swap is highly improbable.
For Rodrigo to leave, certain conditions must be met: he must personally request to leave, and the offer must be over 120 million euros. Without these two conditions being fulfilled, his departure from Madrid seems highly unlikely.
