A Spain player revealed he has been telling Rodri to leave Manchester City this summer.
The Spaniard is widely regarded among the best defensive midfielders in the world and has been touted among the favourites to win the Ballon d’Or., Carvajal said: "Yes, without a doubt, I tell him every day: 'Leave Manchester, there is no sun, come to Madrid because we need you, and you are from here in Madrid'.
And his manager, Pep Guardiola, believes he could play in any football generation. The City boss claimed in May that Rodri has the ability to play in Barcelona’s first European Cup-winning team under Johan Cruyff 32 years ago.“These players could play in any generation in teams across the world. They are too good to not be at that level.“If I was the manager, I would pick myself but if it was Johan Cruyff and he was smarter than me - then it would be Rodri by far.
“He has no doubt about how he's appreciated in the team and in English football, so I wouldn't say it is unfair that the other nominees are there.
