Manchester City fans are still waiting for backup for Rodri in the summer transfer window, with the team having made only one signing so far. The impending sale of Julian Alvarez to Atletico Madrid could provide the necessary funds for new signings, with priority likely given to a replacement for Rodri. Mikel Merino from Real Sociedad is identified as a quality option, with his versatility and ability to reduce the reliance on Rodri making him an appealing choice for City.
Arsenal, who have agreed personal terms with Merino, are hesitating to pay his release clause due to his contract situation, potentially leaving an opportunity for City to swoop in. Merino’s development at Sociedad into a quality midfielder has caught the eye of Guardiola, who may see him as a suitable addition to City’s midfield options. With fans expressing a desire for a player who can lighten the load on Rodri, Merino could be the solution City are looking for as they aim to strengthen their squad before the transfer window closes.
