Softfootball can confirm the exclusive details of Barcelona’s first official offer for Rodri, as the Spanish midfielder has decided to head to Barça at the end of this summer, leaving Manchester City after seven highly successful years.
Breakdown of Barcelona’s First Offer for Rodri
- €45M guaranteed fee, paid in three instalments
- €7M in easily achievable bonuses
- €3M in difficult‑to‑achieve add‑ons
This brings the total package to over €55M, marking Barcelona’s opening move to secure one of the world’s best midfielders.
Rodri had joined Manchester City from Atlético Madrid in July 2019 for a then‑club‑record fee and has since established himself as the world’s premier defensive midfielder, winning multiple Premier League titles and famously scoring the historic winning goal in the 2023 Champions League final.
