Real Madrid Get Major Update in Transfer Pursuit of Man City’s Rodri

On Monday, SER Deportivos reported that Real Madrid want to bring Rodri to the Spanish capital. However, right now, that remains a dream for Real Madrid rather than an actual possibility that they can secure the reigning Ballon d'Or winner.

The ultimate dream is Rodri. For that to happen, we’ll have to see how the Ballon d’Or winner returns from injury. Until then, it’s impossible. Well, not impossible—improbable.SER Deportivos

Despite the challenge of securing Rodri, the outlet doesn't rule out the possibility that the situation could turn around this summer.

But honestly, if Florentino Pérez gets involved, the impossible starts to look improbable, and the improbable starts to look like a done deal. So far, in this 'Spanish-ization' of Madrid, two faces have already arrived—and Florentino doesn’t want this project to fail.SER Deportivos

It will be interesting to see if this Rodri interest turns into a saga and whether they can swing a deal this summer or decide to play the long game with their interest in the midfielder.
