Espagne: Rodri est arrivé à Barcelone pour signer au Barça, son "rêve"
"I'm very happy to have arrived. The last few days have been intense, but I'm glad everything is settled. Of course, playing for FC Barcelona is a dream," the midfielder told reporters waiting for him at the airport.
"I can't wait to be with my teammates, many of whom I already know from the national team. It's time to get to work and give our best," he continued.
With Barça, Rodri is aiming for "the Champions League and everything else that comes our way," he said before slipping away.
The 2024 Ballon d'Or winner landed in Barcelona the day after Manchester City and his future employer reached an agreement for a transfer worth around 75 million euros, including bonuses, according to the Catalan press.
A source within the Blaugrana club told AFP on Sunday that the official announcement would take place "in the coming days".
The outcome of the case of the 30-year-old Spaniard, named best player of the 2026 World Cup with La Roja which he led to the title, was one of the most anticipated of this transfer window.
After seven years at Manchester City, the former Atlético Madrid and Villarreal player was rumored to be close to joining Real Madrid, before ultimately opting for their Catalan rivals.
