Manchester City reportedly seeking to secure transfer of open-minded Brazilian superstar for the next move under Pep Guardiola's management

Manchester City are reportedly pursuing a move for Rodrygo, a winger currently playing for Real Madrid, as they look to strengthen their squad.

According to sources, the English club is one of the main targets for Rodrygo's signature, with Mick Brown, a former scout for Man Utd and Tottenham, claiming that Manchester City are "pushing" for the Brazilian star.

Rodrygo's impressive performance in the match against Real Oviedo over the weekend caught the eye of Real Madrid boss Xabi Alonso, but it seems the player may be seeking more regular game time to reclaim his place in the Brazil squad for the 2026 World Cup.

The potential move could be a replacement for Jack Grealish, who was transferred to Everton recently. Pep Guardiola, Manchester City's manager, is keen to add another winger to his squad, and Rodrygo could be a valuable addition.

However, Rodrygo's availability could be affected by his commitment to the Brazil national team. A player who plays in the national team must be 100% physically fit, which might pose a challenge.

Despite being a part of the Real Madrid team, Rodrygo is not a crucial player, which suggests he might be open to a move to Manchester City. In fact, there are signs that Rodrygo could be on the move this summer to secure regular game time.

Carlo Ancelotti, the new Real Madrid boss, has a lot of love for Rodrygo and has praised his performance in the past. However, he has been left out of the Brazil squad recently, which could indicate that he is willing to consider a move.

Meanwhile, there are rumours about Savinho possibly going to Tottenham, but it's unclear if he has to leave before another player is brought in.

In other transfer news, Manchester City have already added Rayan Cherki to their squad over the summer transfer window.

As the transfer window progresses, it will be interesting to see if Manchester City can secure a deal for Rodrygo and strengthen their squad further.
