The transfer fee for Rodríguez is reportedly €22.5 million, plus an additional €5.5 million in bonuses. Once the sale is complete, Rodríguez will undergo a medical examination, which is expected to take place early next week.
Meanwhile, Real Betis is working on signing a replacement for Rodríguez. The team has identified Rodrigo Riquelme, a 25-year-old player from Atlético Madrid, as the ideal candidate to fill the gap. Riquelme will join Real Betis on a contract that extends until the summer of 2030.
Atlético Madrid has negotiated a resale clause as part of the transfer agreement, which will allow the club to regain control of Riquelme in the future if certain conditions are met.
