Why are Barcelona fans commenting on Olivia Rodrigo's Instagram?
Fans have been commenting on the singer’s Instagram after the Rodri announcement.
The 2026 summer football transfer window is officially underway. It has had an unusual influence on American singer and actress Olivia Rodriguez.
Rodrigo has been a successful singer for numerous years. But football fans, particularly FC Barcelona fans, aren’t commenting on her Instagram posts because of her music.
However, they are doing so after their side signed Rodri, a Spanish midfielder from Manchester City. The midfield maestro had spent several years in England.
However, his full name is Rodrigo Hernandez Cascante. After being presented by Barcelona this week, he had the name ‘Rodrigo’ written on the back of his shirt.
However, unlike other sports players, the Spanish midfielder has not created an official Instagram account. This led to the fans searching his name on the app. It might have shown them the singer’s name.
The fans have spammed her photos with comments such as “welcome to Barca.”
