Reporter: Deco likely negotiating with agent as Rodri could repeat Bernardo Silva's story
Enric Canyellas wrote on social media that a situation similar to Bernardo Silva's with Barcelona might occur, but this time the protagonists are Rodri and Real Madrid.
The report states that Manchester City is not averse to negotiating with other clubs, just as was the case with Bernardo Silva – Bernardo Silva had reached an agreement with Barcelona, who was also his first choice, but he ultimately joined Real Madrid. Now, Rodri has reached an agreement with Real Madrid, and Real Madrid is his first choice.
It is understood that someone from the Barcelona camp recently had a private conversation with Rodri, and it is speculated that Deco has also contacted his agent.
The reporter wrote that in terms of the player's wishes and personal agreements, the situations in these two transfer cases are similar, but Rodri's situation is clearly more complex, as negotiations for a transfer agreement with Manchester City are also needed.
