Guardiola puts up the money to sign the player now and keep him from joining Real Madrid
The multimillion-dollar offer with which Josep Guardiola seeks to prevent an important signing for Real Madrid
During this summer transfer window, Real Madrid and Manchester City have faced each other again over some signings. With both clubs sharing interest in several players, City has once again turned to their capital to finalize these deals. Although Real Madrid hasn't had any issues with their signings, City is looking to interfere with one of their targets.
For several months now, Real Madrid has set their sights on signing Rodri for a future transfer window. Needing to strengthen their midfield, Real Madrid has seen the Spaniard as the ideal player. However, Josep Guardiola, aware of this interest, is working on a multi-million offer to convince Rodri to keep playing for City.

For this transfer window, Manchester City is expected to put a contract renewal offer on Rodri's table. This deal would clearly come with a significant salary increase, making Rodri the second highest-paid player on the team.
Millions to turn down Real Madrid
Having been part of Manchester City since 2019, Rodri quickly established himself as a key player. Becoming the master of the midfield, Rodri provided a level of solidity never seen before in this position. With great creativity, vision, and control of the pace of matches, Rodri is one of the best midfielders in the world.
Although his injury in September last year was a major setback, causing him to miss much of the season, Rodri has managed to recover successfully. At 28 years old and with a contract until 2027, Real Madrid has seen his return as a great opportunity to sign him.

However, the renewal offer shows Josep Guardiola's intentions to prevent this signing at any cost. Offering a salary of £300,000 per week, this deal proves how afraid Guardiola is of Real Madrid.
Guardiola's fear
Over all these years, Josep Guardiola has learned that he'll never be able to compete with Real Madrid. Whether on or off the field, Rodri's renewal is further proof that City only has money to finalize their deals.
