A major transfer has occurred in world football today. It is reported that after several days of negotiations, 30-year-old Ballon d'Or winner Rodri will join Barcelona for a transfer fee of €70 million. Manchester City has already agreed to Barcelona's offer.

Rodri will fly to Barcelona by Tuesday at the latest to finalize the transfer. He is expected to officially don the FC Barcelona jersey at the Gamper Trophy match this Wednesday. The two sides have signed a four-year contract, running until 2030, with an annual salary of €15 million.

Rodri will most likely wear the number 16 soccer shirt, while Fermín will switch to number 7. With Rodri's arrival, Barcelona will form the midfield of a World Cup champion. This summer, Rodri, Pedri, and Olmo started together multiple times, helping Spain win the World Cup. Barcelona's midfield organization will be a nightmare for all opponents.
