Rodri Hernández, a 30-year-old midfielder for Manchester City, is at the forefront of initial contacts to become the grand signing of Real Madrid during this summer transfer market. Florentino Pérez has authorized exploring an operation in which the white entity would be willing to exceed 50 million euros.

The approach does not yet equate to a formal offer or guarantee that Manchester City will negotiate. Rodri is under contract until June 30, 2027, so the English club must decide whether to renew him, sell him this summer, or risk him entering the final year of his contract.

Florentino Pérez authorizes the move for Rodri Hernández

The approval from Florentino Pérez allows Real Madrid to move from tracking to initial contact. The initial amount being considered exceeds 50 million euros, although both clubs would still need to agree on a valuation before initiating definitive negotiations.

The duration of Rodri Hernández's contract directly impacts the price. Despite Manchester City retaining his rights for another season, their negotiating position would weaken from January onwards if the player does not sign an extension.

The English club has been working on the midfielder's continuity in recent months. However, no new contract to replace the one signed in 2022, which linked Rodri to Manchester City until 2027, has been communicated so far.

Real Madrid believes that this contractual situation may present an opportunity. A proposal ranging between 50 and 60 million euros would be below the usual cost for a player of his caliber but would align with his remaining one year on the contract.

Manchester City still needs to state its position

The main obstacle remains with Manchester City, which has not publicly accepted Rodri Hernández's departure. The midfielder holds a key role in the team, and his departure would require the club to find a replacement before the transfer window closes.

Therefore, the verbal discussions only signify an initial phase. Real Madrid needs to ascertain if Manchester City is open to considering proposals and the amount they would demand to authorize the transfer.

Contradictory versions also exist regarding the extent of the contacts. Days earlier, reports suggested that the Madrid club had spoken with City to deny any closed agreement with the player, while the latest information indicates an initial approach to explore his signing.

Hence, a definitive agreement between the clubs is not confirmed. Neither has a written offer been confirmed nor a response from Manchester City to the over 50 million euros that Real Madrid is willing to invest.

The potential signing will also depend on departures within the Real Madrid squad. Manchester United maintains interest in Aurélien Tchouaméni, while Eduardo Camavinga is among the players whose futures need resolution this summer.

An exit in the midfield would free up sporting and salary space for Rodri Hernández. Without such a departure, the club would need to reorganize a position already occupied by several contracted players.

The next step will be to see how Manchester City responds to the approach and whether they are willing to set a price. If the English club initiates negotiations, Florentino Pérez must decide whether to increase the initial figure; should they maintain their refusal, Real Madrid could postpone the operation for Rodri Hernández until 2027.
