Next week looms as a critical juncture in the future of a Manchester City leader

The biggest departure from the Manchester City squad that could occur this summer is midfield general Rodri . At this stage of the summer transfer window, Rodri's future remains uncertain . He has one more year remaining on his current contract with City and a return to Spain has long been mooted for the Ballon d'Or-winning midfielder. It has now been reported that Barcelona , rather than Real Madrid , have agreed personal terms with Manchester City's midfield general. Also, another report indicates that Rodri is set to meet with Enzo Maresca when he returns to Manchester City early next week. Whatever occurs, it does seem like next week is a critical juncture in the future of Rodri.
