Man City offer expensive contract for Rodri

Man City are ready to increase their salary to keep midfielder Rodri at the Etihad Stadium long term.

Rodri is still very important to Man City.

The Express said the new deal will keep Rodri at Etihad until 2029. The current contract between the two sides expires in 2027. In addition, when agreeing to sign a new contract with Man City, Rodri's salary will also increase significantly from 200,000 to more than 300,000 pounds/week.

Rodri won the 2024 Ballon d'Or with Man City and became the best defensive midfielder in the world under Pep Guardiola. However, he was sidelined for most of the 2024/25 season after suffering a cruciate ligament injury against Arsenal last September. Rodri missed the entire season and only returned to action in the club's most recent match against Bournemouth.

Man City highly appreciates Rodri's influence and considers him a pillar that will be difficult to replace in the future. Facing the attraction of big clubs, Man City is determined to keep Rodri with an attractive contract.

Last season was a huge disappointment for Man City as they failed to win any trophies. The Blues lost to Crystal Palace in the FA Cup final and finished third in the Premier League, behind Liverpool and Arsenal.

In preparation for the FIFA Club World Cup, Man City will travel to the United States next month. The team will play their opening match against Wydad AC on June 18. This is a great opportunity for Man City to prove their ability on the international stage. The return of Rodri will certainly be an important factor in this campaign.

Marmoush's masterpiece helps Man City get closer to a ticket to the Champions League. In the early morning of May 21, Man City defeated Bournemouth 3-1 at home, thereby touching a ticket to the Champions League next season.
