Inda answers whether Real Madrid will complete Rodri’s transfer from Manchester city
Inda’s newspaper has been very clear about Rodri’s future
In this transfer window, Real Madrid has been one of the most active clubs. So far, reinforcements have focused primarily on defense, in addition to the addition of Mastantuono. However, in recent days, the possible arrival of Rodri Hernández this summer has begun to gain momentum. The Manchester City midfielder has been one of the most talked-about names in recent hours.
However, despite many reports placing Rodri very close to Real Madrid, ‘Okdiario’, Eduardo Inda’s newspaper, has put an end to all the rumors. « Rodrigo Hernández is not a real option for Real Madrid at the moment. The current Ballon d’Or winner Rodri is very popular at the Santiago Bernabéu stadium, where they are convinced that he would be a perfect fit for one of the best players on the planet, but right now it is impossible, » reported journalist Iván Martín.
Therefore, it seems that Real Madrid is aware that it will be difficult to finalize Rodri’s arrival this summer. According to ‘Defensa Central’, Rodri himself is eager to wear the Real Madrid shirt. Although he has a contract with Manchester City until June 30, 2027, and has not yet renewed his contract, the club has not ruled out attempting to sign him in 2026, when he would only have one year left on his contract.
In fact, Iván Martín, a journalist from ‘Okdiario’, is clear that, sooner or later, Florentino Pérez will attempt to sign him. Florentino Pérez likes him a lot, which is the most important thing, and he would be a good fit for Xabi Alonso, but Real Madrid knows that a player of Rodri’s stature makes it almost impossible to reach an agreement with Manchester City, » reports Eduardo Inda’s newspaper.
Rodri would be the perfect reinforcement for Real Madrid’s midfield, that’s crystal clear. However, looking ahead to this summer, Real Madrid sees a signing of this type as very difficult. Even so, at Valdebebas they are keeping a close eye on his situation. He has two years left on his contract and, for now, he doesn’t seem to have any intention of renewing it in the short term, which could open the door to a more viable deal in 2026.
Complicated
Iván Martín, a journalist from ‘Okdiario’, has responded to the rumors that Rodri will join Real Madrid this summer. Thus, Inda’s newspaper has put an end to all speculation: the Spanish midfielder will not join Real Madrid. in the coming weeks. It seems that Real Madrid’s board has shelved Rodri’s signing until the summer of 2026, provided he doesn’t renew with City.
« Real Madrid has closed the door after completing the signing of Álvaro Carreras, and at this point, no one is going to work on a tremendously complicated operation. ‘These types of signings aren’t made in two days,’ say Real Madrid’s top brass, » concludes the report from ‘Okdiario’.
The first tests of the new Bernabéu with LED lights, this is how it looks from the outside
Construction work on the Bernabéu continues unabated, and the stadium continues to take shape.
Although the new Bernabéu already presents a great image, the work is not over. In fact, very important work remains to be done to define one of the largest projects in living memory. Thus, this summer, work on LED lighting is being carried out on the entire Bernabéu façade. The tests are proving a complete success.
YouTube player Jesús Ramírez, through his social media, has shared the first photographs of the Bernabéu with the lighting. « Second lighting tests on the Bernabéu façade, in this case on the West. The first tests were rejected, and now they are testing this new system, » the content creator reports on his ‘X’ account. The lighting is being installed on all of the stadium’s slats.
This is a very meticulous project that will take weeks, but it’s getting closer and closer to completion. The club’s plan is that, throughout this upcoming season, the Bernabéu will have LED lighting throughout the entire stadium façade. This will give the exterior of the Bernabéu a much more impressive appearance. We’re talking about one of the most anticipated projects for all Real Madrid fans.
These are the first tests; nothing is definitive. All the lighting around the stadium still needs to be adjusted. It’s worth noting that this project has nothing to do with the famous video mapping. They are two completely different things. These lights will only illuminate the façade with color and a play of light. Video mapping will be used to project images onto the façade. This project is still ongoing and will be carried out in the coming months.
In fact, Real Madrid has postponed this part of the project until the end. This is because the video mapping installation requires LED poles to be placed around the entire Bernabéu, some of which will be in areas where much work still remains to be done. Everything indicates that video mapping will be implemented once the complete pedestrianization of the Bernabéu and the famous La Castellana parking lot is completed.
Outcome
The Bernabéu construction work, although many believe it is finished, is still in full swing. In fact, this summer, very important projects are underway. LED lighting, the stadium’s preparation for the NFL game, the new locker room tunnel, the 360º Skywalk… many projects that will give the stadium even greater grandeur.
The Real Madrid fans are eager to see the stadium 100% finished. However, there are still many months of work to be done to complete one of the most incredible projects in living memory. Madrid has decided to continue improving the stadium until the 2030 World Cup, with the goal of having the Bernabéu in its best shape for the event.
