At Real Madrid, the need for a radical overhaul of the squad for next season is clearer than ever. Sticking with the current players could make competing for titles extremely difficult, a fact the club has fully grasped after a thorough assessment of the current situation.
Rodri Hernández, the Manchester City midfielder, has emerged as the leading candidate to bolster the midfield if his knee injury allows a full recovery. Within Real Madrid, the player is being closely monitored, and it is believed he could break the unwritten rule preventing the club from paying more than €40 million for a player nearing 30, should he prove his fitness.

So far, no official steps have been taken. Contacting Rodri’s agents does not guarantee a final agreement, and until a formal contract is signed, anything is possible in the world of football—especially with a player of Rodri’s caliber, who is being watched by all the major clubs. If he returns to full fitness, he could become a pivotal player for any team, including the Spanish national team.
Meanwhile, Real Madrid is exploring alternative options in the transfer market as a precaution. Several talented midfielders are on their radar, but not all possess the same contractual situation and physical attributes as Rodri Hernández.
The Spanish player harbors the dream of one day joining Real Madrid and is working hard to regain his full form after his knee injury, affirming his determination to return to the level of performance he displayed before his absence from the pitch.
