Real Madrid officials advocate for Rodri transfer from Man City

Real Madrid's José Ángel Sánchez and Juni Calafat are actively pursuing Manchester City's Rodri, despite concerns from president Florentino Pérez about the midfielder's injury history. Rodri's strong performance in the World Cup, where he captained Spain to victory and won the Golden Ball, has influenced internal discussions at Real Madrid. While Pérez has hesitations regarding Rodri's physical condition, the push from Sánchez and Calafat signifies potential movement towards a deal. Real Madrid is reportedly on the verge of negotiating personal terms with Rodri ahead of talks with Manchester City.
