The announcement was shared by transfer journalist Fabrizio Romano, who reported that Rodri had informed Real Madrid of his decision out of respect for the club after both sides held discussions over a possible move.

“Out of respect for Madrid, as they have been class, Rodri informed them that his decision is to join Barça,” Barquero was quoted as saying.

Rodri has reportedly agreed personal terms with Barcelona, although the final details of any transfer agreement between the Catalan club and Manchester City remain to be resolved.

The decision represents a major development in the future of one of Europe’s most influential midfielders, with both Spanish giants previously linked with the Spain international.

Rodri has established himself as a key figure at Manchester City since joining from Atlético Madrid, playing a central role in the club’s domestic and European success.

His potential move to Barcelona would mark a significant return to Spanish football and provide the Catalan side with an experienced presence in midfield.

Real Madrid’s interest in the player had added further intrigue to the transfer situation, but Rodri’s reported decision appears to have ended speculation over a possible move to the Santiago Bernabéu.
