Vinícius opposed? Real Madrid not interested in signing Rodri

Rodri has become a hot topic among Real Madrid fans after expressing his openness to joining the Madrid club. However, the situation has taken an unexpected turn.

Details. According to MARCA, signing the Manchester City midfielder is not part of Real Madrid’s immediate plans. Apparently, Rodri’s profile does not align with the club’s strategy, as they see no justification for spending a significant amount of money on the City star.

Real Madrid has struggled with a lack of a consistent defensive midfielder since Toni Kroos’ departure. Adding a player of Rodri’s caliber could greatly alleviate their midfield issues. However, it seems the transfer is unlikely to happen.

Another potential factor could be Vinícius Júnior, who was a leading contender for the Ballon d’Or but lost out to Rodri. During the celebration, Rodri reportedly sang songs aimed at mocking the Real Madrid star, which may have influenced the club’s stance.
