Pep Guardiola keen on Rodrygo, monitors situation amid Saudi interest

Real Madrid forward Rodrygo Goes is currently in outstanding form, with seven goals in eight games leading up to the Madrid derby, where he assisted Kylian Mbappe's equalizer. Despite expressing his happiness at Real Madrid, Manchester City is closely monitoring his situation, with Pep Guardiola reportedly a fan of the player. Manchester United and Saudi Arabia have also shown interest in Rodrygo, but he remains committed to his current club. Meanwhile, City is facing challenges in the Premier League, trailing Liverpool, and Aguero has stated that Guardiola is the key to turning the situation around. Additionally, Guardiola has recently challenged Jack Grealish to reclaim his spot in the lineup amid increased competition. City is in a rebuilding phase, having signed several new players to revitalize their squad.
