Manchester City in talks over new Rodri contract

Manchester City are in talks with Rodri over a new contract, according to TBR.

The Cityzens plan to finalise a new deal with the Spanish midfielder before the end of the year, with talks going on with him and his representatives.

Journalst Graeme Bailey said: “City are now working on Rodri’s new deal – he is back from injury and things are progressing, I am told.

“Rodri is a huge piece in the City jigsaw, as they want the spine of the team tied down. Donnarumma came in on a long-term deal, Dias and Haaland re-signed, and now they are confident Rodri will follow.

“Viana has his plans and things are going well. If City can tie down Rodri and Phil Foden in the coming weeks, they can then concentrate on improvements – but overall, they are very happy with how their squad looks.”
