Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola is seriously considering further strengthening the team. The Spanish specialist is currently interested in one of the most talented young strikers in Europe - Real Madrid player Rodrigo.
According to reports from Estadio Deportivo, Guardiola sees Rodrigo as a versatile striker who can play in several positions, which is fully compatible with his tactical schemes. That is why he intends to make the attack line more effective by adding the Brazilian forward to the squad.
According to the source, Real Madrid is ready to enter into negotiations only if there is a big offer. Madrid has set a starting price of at least 80 million euros for the striker. This amount does not pose a serious obstacle for Manchester City, which is considered a financially strong club.
At the same time, Rodrigo's personal plans may also affect the matter. If the player does not get enough game time in the first half of the season, it is possible that he will consider changing teams in the winter transfer window.
Thus, Guardiola and the City management are closely monitoring the situation around Rodrigo. The possibility of a major deal between Madrid and Manchester clubs in the January transfer market is growing.
