If there is a name that is generating quite a buzz in the international sports program, it is Rodrigo Hernández Cascante. Anecdotally, the 28-year-old midfielder, known for flying under the radar and focusing on the essential in a footballer, the sporting aspect, has recently been under strong media scrutiny. Why? Due to the significant debate that arose when he was named the Ballon d'Or 2024 instead of Vinicius Jr., a player many considered the clear winner of the award.

However, Rodri Hernández seems to have moved past that issue. Now, he has recently made statements that have sparked another debate, this time not related to his sporting level, but rather to the direction of his professional career. The midfielder has hinted at the possibility of considering an offer from one of the major teams in Spain, should they express interest in acquiring his services.

On the program 'El Larguero' on Cadena SER, Rodri Hernández made his position clear regarding a hypothetical offer from Real Madrid to sign him. "When Real Madrid calls you, the best club in history, the most decorated and for what it represents, you always have to pay attention," said the Madrid-born player, showing interest in the Madrid team.

Rodri Hernández doesn't see himself leaving Manchester City just yet

Despite this, Rodri Hernández has stated that for now, he doesn't see himself leaving Manchester City, mentioning that "it could be a possibility to end my career in England, I feel very loved". However, he has left open the possibility of returning to Spain, where he has already had experiences with both Atlético de Madrid and Villarreal CF: "Spain is my country, the teams are growing more and more. In the end, they are the best leagues."


Following these statements, it would not be surprising if speculations about the future of Rodri Hernández start to emerge. He is under contract with Manchester City until 2027 and has proven to be a key player in their midfield. However, although not opposed to a possible departure from the 'Citizens' team, this issue could be on hold as the midfielder is recovering from a right knee cruciate ligament injury that will keep him off the field at least until next season.
