FC Barcelona has reached a principle of agreement with Manchester City to sign Rodri for €76.5 million (£65.3 million).

The transfer of the 30-year-old midfielder, who will sign a 4-year contract in Barcelona, will be structured through an initial fixed payment of €60 million (£51.2 million) plus an additional €16.5 million in easily achievable variables.

Financial breakdown of the transfer agreed between FC Barcelona and Manchester City

The British team expects to earn at least €71.5 million guaranteed for a player with less than 12 months left on his Premier League contract. This final figure surpasses the initial proposal presented by FC Barcelona on August 7, valued at €45 million (£38.6 million) plus bonuses, an offer that was rejected in Manchester for not approaching the official valuation of €80 million.

The midfielder declined to renew his contract in England after winning the Premier League and the 2026 World Cup, where he was awarded the Ballon d'Or. Real Madrid also inquired about the player's contractual situation, but the Spanish international's preference to join Camp Nou accelerated the definitive agreement between the boards.

Salary clauses and the impact of the signing on Hansi Flick's squad

The contractual agreement between the Catalan club and Rodri includes a 4-year contract until June 2030. The Barcelona leadership hastened the financial negotiations to fill the void left by the injured Frenkie de Jong, who will be sidelined for several months due to a medial collateral ligament rupture in his right knee.

The midfielder leaves Manchester City after being transferred from Atletico Madrid in 2019 in exchange for his €70 million release clause. He played 298 matches for the English team, scoring 28 goals and providing 32 assists, contributing to 4 Premier League titles, 2 FA Cups, 3 League Cups, and 1 Champions League victory.

FC Barcelona and Manchester City will exchange the bank guarantees for the initial €60 million within the next 24 hours. Once the financial drafts are validated, Rodri will travel to the Catalan capital for medical tests and to sign his new 4-year contract before the weekend.
