Ramón de Mon reveals it, that's why Guardiola wants to sign Rodrygo: 'All...'

Rodrygo is once again the main protagonist of the transfer market with Manchester City interested in signing him. In recent hours, rumors have intensified with the Brazilian being tempted from the Etihad. Above all, because of Guardiola's determination, who sees him as an ideal player.

In fact, Ramón de Mon has uploaded a video to his YouTube channel revealing the reasons. The truth is that Guardiola's determination to sign Rodrygo at all costs isn't new and he has decided to share it. One would have to go back 3 years, to the Champions League semifinals in 2022.

At that moment, City was one step away from the final in Paris, but in the final minutes, a miracle happened. Rodrygo, coming off the bench, scored a brace that sent the tie into extra time. There, Real Madrid managed to prevail when no one expected it.

But in 2024, history repeated itself, with Rodrygo scoring in the first leg and also in the second leg. Two crucial goals that allowed the Madridists to qualify for the semifinals. That's why at that moment Pep decided to contact the former Santos player so he would know about his interest.

Guardiola sends a message to his inner circle

Guardiola already tested the waters last summer, with a personal call to Rodrygo. He has come back again, and he has insisted to City's board that they have to go after him. In fact, he has given them a strong reason: "He destroys us in every knockout round."

According to Defensa Central, this is how he's trying to convince the citizen club to make an offer. Although they are aware of Real Madrid's position at this time. First of all, if they don't come with at least €100 million, they're not going to open the exit door for him.

In addition, Rodrygo himself has to communicate his intention to leave. For that, the matches against Osasuna and Oviedo at the start of LaLiga could be key. Xabi Alonso will show him how much he counts on him for the season.
