Spain international, Rodri, will wear the number 16 shirt at Barcelona.
This was disclosed by football transfer expert, Fabrizio Romano, in a post on X
“Rodri has asked to wear number 16 at Barcelona during his conversations with Fermín López over recent days,” Romano wrote.
“Fermín, set to switch to number 7 so Rodri will maintain his iconic 16.”
Rodri is all set to join Barcelona from Manchester City.
The midfielder will sign a four-year deal with Barcelona this week, which will see him remain at Camp Nou until June 2030.
The Ballon d’Or winner was not part of the Manchester City squad that lost 3-0 to Arsenal in the Community Shield on Sunday.
