According to the latest report from "Sport", Flick is confident the team needs the presence of a veteran like Rodri, and he will not

hinder the club's plans. Barcelona is fully committed to securing Rodri, with the club determined to make him their central midfielder in their sporting blueprint. The key figure behind this major transfer is Flick. He explicitly told the sporting management that a player of Rodri's caliber must be brought in.

After initial communication, there was optimism within the club. Flick's core reason is that the team desperately needs an experienced and mature player. Beyond Rodri's individual quality, Flick believes the team lacks a veteran who has been thoroughly tested in top-level competition.

Barcelona's main squad is generally young and lacks experience in major competitions. Flick believes the team needs a player who can make a decisive impact in high-pressure and difficult matches, especially in the Champions League and during crucial final stages of the season. Following Lewandowski's departure, the lack of a core leader in the team has become increasingly apparent.

The team lost the most influential and experienced figure in the dressing room, and Rodri perfectly fits the team's needs: he is a Champions League-winning caliber player who, despite achieving individual honors, still maintains a strong desire to compete for trophies.

Flick was deeply involved throughout the entire transfer process. He personally called Rodri and thoroughly explained Barcelona's team-building plans. This call was a crucial turning point that directly tipped the scales in Barcelona's favor.

Barcelona's swift action and firm stance persuaded Rodri to change his mind, ultimately rejecting Real Madrid's offer. Real Madrid's slow and hesitant response directly cost them this player.

In the eyes of Nou Camp's leadership, signing Rodri is a brilliant move that achieves two goals at once: on one hand, Barcelona acquires a world-class midfielder; on the other hand, Real Madrid desperately needed a defensive midfielder to control the game, and last season, their midfield showed significant weaknesses. Now, they can only watch their target get intercepted by their eternal rivals.

Furthermore, Rodri's arrival will not hinder the growth of the team's young academy star. The sporting department is confident that Bernal will be a core player for the team for the next decade. The club believes that with a packed schedule across multiple competitions, both midfielders can coexist and rotate perfectly.

Rodri will not only avoid suppressing Bernal's development, but will also help accelerate it. Additionally, De Jong's long-term injury means it is essentially impossible for him to return this season, so the team urgently needs a defensive midfielder with immediate impact. Both parties have reached a verbal agreement, and Barcelona now needs to submit a formal offer to Manchester City.

The deal is estimated to be worth approximately 60 million euros. Currently, both clubs are still in negotiations. Barcelona fans are filled with anticipation, awaiting the arrival of this midfield leader, personally selected by Flick, to help the team challenge for all European titles.
