Madness for Rodri at Camp Nou

Rodri has become, for now, the big signing of the summer for Barça. The fans are thrilled with the arrival of the Spanish international and, since he landed in Barcelona on Monday afternoon, he has not stopped receiving displays of affection. This Wednesday, during the squad presentation, he received the biggest ovation of the traditional Joan Gamper Trophy and confirmed that his arrival has sparked enormous excitement among the supporters.

The midfielder was the last player to step onto the pitch during the team presentation, and his appearance prompted the biggest ovation of the afternoon. The decibels soared in the stands of the Spotify Camp Nou when his name was announced, and the footballer responded to the fans' affection by applauding and waving.

Expectations had already become evident an hour earlier, when Rodri stepped onto the pitch to check the state of the playing surface firsthand. At that moment, he was also greeted with a thunderous ovation by the fans who were already in the stands. The Spanish international showed his gratitude and responded to the supporters’ displays of affection.

Since his arrival on Monday afternoon, the new blaugrana player has experienced a true wave of adoration. Many supporters went yesterday to the Spotify Camp Nou offices to try to see him up close and welcome him. The excitement also spread to the exit of the restaurant where Rodri had lunch with members of the Barça board, where he once again received the warmth of the fans.

The excitement over his arrival is even reflected in the streets. Just a few hours after Barcelona made the midfielder's signing official, shirts bearing the name Rodrigo and the number 16 were already being seen around the Spotify Camp Nou .
