Transfer: Man City Identify Player to Sign as Rodri's Replacement
Enzo Maresca wants a reunion with his former Chelsea midfielder, but Manchester City would need to pay more than £100 million, reports said.
- Manchester City are pursuing Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fernández to replace Rodri, who is closing on a deal with Barcelona. The Premier League champions seek a midfield successor as their star player prepares to depart.
- Rodri has chosen Barcelona over Real Madrid and enters the final year of his contract at the Etihad Stadium. This departure prompted manager Enzo Maresca to identify a successor to control the midfield.
- Manager Enzo Maresca is keen on a reunion with Fernández, whom he coached at Stamford Bridge. Chelsea value the Argentina international in the region of £120 million, though a fee exceeding £100 million will be required.
- City have bolstered their squad with signings including Ayyoub Bouaddi and Elliot Anderson, following Bernardo Silva's departure to Real Madrid on a free transfer. These moves strengthen midfield depth amid potential further departures.
- Should Real Madrid miss out on Rodri, manager José Mourinho may view Fernández as an alternative target for his side. The player continues training alone in preparation for an expected return to Chelsea next week.
