Manchester City manager, Pep Guardiola has reportedly asked for Real Madrid\u2019s Rodrygo in a possible swap deal for Julian Alvarez.<\/p>\n

According to Catalan outlet Nacional, Guardiola is an admirer of the Brazilian international.<\/p>\n

This comes after Alvarez expressed unhappiness with his playing time under Guardiola at Man City.<\/p>\n

The Argentina international featured in 54 games, scoring 19 goals and providing 13 assists for City last season.<\/p>\n

But the presence of the likes of Erling Haaland and Phil Foden has rendered him a second option for Guardiola\u2019s side.<\/p>\n

Alvarez has generated interest from Barcelona and Atletico Madrid, while Chelsea and Arsenal are also rumoured to be interested in signing him.<\/p>\n
