This article contains exclusive comment from Stefan Borson, a former financial adviser to Man City.

Rodrygo has also been linked with Liverpool and Arsenal this summer, but Real Madrid are believed to be demanding a significant fee for his services.

“I think that there are whispers that the deal is effectively done, certainly on the player side and has been for some months because he’s desperate to get out of Real Madrid. 

“And again, as with Donnarumma, Real Madrid want him out.

I think Real Madrid have had enough, so it’s definitely a feasible deal in that respect.

“That might make it more achievable.”
