Transfer: Mourinho angry as Barcelona hijack Real Madrid’s move for Rodri

Real Madrid manager, Jose Mourinho, has been left furious with Barcelona set to sign Manchester City’s Rodri this summer.

Mourinho had been pushing senior officials at the club to bring in Rodri, as he seeks to bolster his midfield.

But Barca have now jumped to the front of the queue and are looking to quickly wrap up the deal.

Rodri is into the final months of his current contract and has been waiting on Madrid to open negotiations.

However, Los Blancos have been focused on tying Vinicius Junior to a new contract, amid strong interest from Arsenal.

City also want to keep Rodri and extend his contract, but it now appears he could be leaving the Etihad.
