Barcelona prepare third bid for Rodri after Man City reject £55m

Spanish giants Barcelona are preparing to submit a third bid to Manchester City for Rodri as they continue efforts to secure the Spain midfielder’s signature.

This comes after City rejected a new £55 million bid from Barcelona for Rodri.

Last week, Barcelona had an initial offer in the region of £40 million knocked back.

On Thursday, the LaLiga champions offered between £55 million, but their new offer was still not enough for City.

“After €50m and €60m packages both rejected, direct club to club talks to continue half way between €60m last bid and €80m fee requested.”
