Manchester City are set to reward Rodri with a bumper new deal for his excellent performances that would nearly double his current wages.
According to The Mirror, Manchester City might hand Rodri a bumper new deal that would double his £180,000-a-week. The midfielder has been immense for Pep Guardiola and has steadily become one of their most important players since moving to the club in 2019.
Rodri poised for new contract talks
Many have rightly praised Kevin de Bruyne, Erling Haaland and Phil Foden, among others, for Manchester City’s unprecedented success last season. They have continued to challenge for the ‘treble’ even in the current campaign, but Rodri has been their most important player compared to those others.
The Spaniard has developed into one of the best defensive midfielders under Pep Guardiola, with Manchester City eager to reward him for his development. Rodri also scored the Champions League-winning goal last May against Inter Milan and has continued to assert his influence on this team.
In the three games he missed this season, Manchester City lost all three, which showcased how vital his position has been at the club. Manchester City are now keen on handing the 27-year-old a new deal that would double his current £180,000-a-week wages after bonuses but guarantee him a base salary of £300,000 a week.
Rodri’s current deal runs until 2027, but Manchester City are now prepared to wait that long, as they want to make him one of the most important names in their squad. He seems like an untouchable player under Guardiola, with the club subsequently not even remotely considering enquiries from other clubs.
Rodri, the next Manchester City captain?
There could be some changes afoot at Manchester City and their leadership group in the coming years. The club know that at some stage, they might lose the likes of De Bruyne and Kyle Walker, which would open up space to install a new skipper, with Rodri very much on the forefront to take the armband.
Rodri has showcased massive leadership skills on the pitch, and he is generally calm in his performances while dictating the tempo of how Manchester City like to play. He seems like the perfect fit to take the armband from the current veterans once they move on.
