‘Would be perfect for us’: Carvajal wants Man City superstar to join Real Madrid

Real Madrid defender Dani Carvajal has showered praise on Manchester City midfielder Rodri noting that he would be a perfect fit for the Spanish giant.

Spain will lock horns with England in the final of EURO 2024 and Carvajal will face club teammate Jude Bellingham.

However, Speaking to the media ahead of the match, the Real Madrid superstar showered praise on his compatriot Rodri and revealed that he often urged the Spanish midfielder to join Los Blancos.

“I tell Rodri every day to sign for Real Madrid.”

“I tell him every day to leave Manchester, that there is no sun there and to come to Madrid that we need him,” he added, as revealed by Fabrizio Romano.

The defender then revealed that while Rodri often turned him down citing his contract in England, he would be a good fit into Carlo Ancelotti’s system.

“He tells me he has a contract but he would be perfect for us.”

Rodri has been in a spectacular form for club and country. The 28-year-old has played every minute of the five games for Spain, averaging over 11 defensive actions and seven ball recoveries per game. Further, his pass accuracy stands at an impressive 94%.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

There have been talks of Real Madrid wanting Rodri as a possible replacement for Toni Kroos, but nothing is concrete at this point.
