Rodri will land today in El Prat to formalize his signing for FC Barcelona

The best midfielder in the world, Rodri, will land today at El Prat airport at seven in the afternoon to formalize his signing for FC Barcelona, ​​without a doubt the operation of the summer in the world of football, both at the Spanish and international level. The signing will have a fixed cost of 60 million euros, to which variables related to titles won and games played could be added, in percentages always higher than 60 percent of the games in each season. The final price based on these derivatives could reach 70 million but hardly exceed that figure.

Rodri, who had one year left on his contract at Manchester City, will spend tonight in a hotel in the Catalan capital. The plan is to present it tomorrow at the club's facilities, although not at the Spotify Camp Nou due to the works, a possibility that was considered within the entity but finally ruled out precisely due to logistical issues. Under normal conditions the stadium doors would have been opened due to the magnitude of the footballer, whose hiring has gone down very well with Barcelona fans.

Rodri, 30 years old, will undergo the relevant medical examination tomorrow and on Wednesday he will participate in the Gamper, although he will not play minutes yet since he will barely have met his new teammates (some of whom he already knows from the Spanish team, yes) and Hansi Flick, his coach from now on.
