It is said that Manchester City s forward is in urgent need of upgrade, chasing Rodrigo

After a month of torture, Rodrigo finally turned from a "priceless" Mr. Billion yuan to a hot commodity in the transfer market.

2 for 1, Manchester City's forward line urgently needs to be upgraded

According to Romano, Manchester City is preparing to sell Savigno and McCarty first, and then introduce Rodrigo, so that financial balance can be achieved. In the summer window of 2024, Manchester City failed to retain Alvarez, who was unwilling to play as a substitute, which indirectly caused a big drop in the middle of last season. In the 2025 winter window, Manchester City got Marmus by paying a premium, which is the Alvarez stand-in selected by Guardiola. Judging from the situation in the second half of last season, Malmush's shooting skills are not a problem, and his foot skills are still far from Guardiola's requirements. This may be one of the reasons why Manchester City continues to chase Rodrigo.

Without front formation is preferred, will the center front formation become a "sweet rib" again?

While Haaland was absent due to injury last season, Guardiola set up a frontless formation with Marmush as the arrow ahead. During the Club World Cup, Haaland returned from injury, and Guardiola used the frontless and center formation alternately. Although Manchester City has signed a 10-year long contract with Haaland, Guardiola does not seem to have firmly planned to build a team around this tall center. A small player with a flexible ball path is still his ideal No. 9.

Rodrigo played the "Pseudo-Nine" during Real Madrid. This time, he was a player with more delicate skills than Malmush. Guardiola asked the uniform team to buy Mr. 100 million in order to prepare two plans for the team without a striker.
