At first I thought the transfer news was a rumour,Not until He called me personally Yes that He’s joining Arsenal, I’m not really happy with the move, atleast even if He wants a new chapter,not with Club that hasn’t won UCL before”, Man city Star Rodri angered by His teammates decision who’s set to join Arsenal by the summer – Not Foden and not De Bruyne

The Premier League transfer scene is heating up, and it seems tensions are already rising behind the scenes at Manchester City. In a revealing press conference, City’s midfield enforcer Rodri voiced his frustration over a teammate’s imminent move to Arsenal — and he didn’t hold back.

When asked about recent transfer rumours linking one of his City teammates to Mikel Arteta’s side, Rodri admitted he initially thought the speculation was nothing more than gossip. But things took a serious turn when the player personally reached out to confirm the news.

> “At first, I thought the transfer news was a rumour. Not until he called me personally, yes, that he’s joining Arsenal,” Rodri revealed.

Visibly disappointed, the Spanish international expressed his disapproval of the move — not necessarily because of Arsenal as a club, but because of what he sees as a step down in European ambition.

> “I’m not really happy with the move. At least, even if he wants a new chapter, not with a club that hasn’t won the Champions League before,” Rodri added.

While Rodri didn’t explicitly name the player, sources close to the Etihad suggest that it’s none other than Jack Grealish. The England international has reportedly grown frustrated with limited starts and squad rotation under Pep Guardiola, and Arsenal’s long-term project under Mikel Arteta has caught his interest.

If the move materializes, it would be a huge coup for Arsenal, adding flair, creativity, and top-level experience to their already impressive attacking lineup. For Manchester City, however, it signals another high-profile departure — and judging by Rodri’s reaction, not one that will be easily forgiven in the dressing room.

This developing saga has quickly become one of the most talked-about stories of the summer transfer window, and all eyes will be on both clubs in the coming weeks.
