"Manchester City" club's gaze is further heading towards the safes playing in Madrid's "Atletico" team.
ESPN recently announced that Pep Guardiola is interested in Saul Niguez, but his price is not as attractive as that of 22-year-old defensive midfielder Rodri.
According to "Goal", "Man City" has identified Rodri as their priority purchase for the upcoming summer. His contract includes a 70 million release clause, which does not pose major problems for the "citizens".
Rodri is playing his first season in the main "Atletico" team. He arrived from "Villarreal" in the summer. The Spaniard has integrated perfectly into the "Atletico" team and is now considered one of the best players in his position in the "La Liga" championship.
His playing style is compared to that of Barcelona's midfielder Sergio Busquets.
