What was once just a rumor has now been confirmed. Manchester City officially announced that midfielder Rodri has injured his knee ligaments during the fifth round of the Premier League match against Arsenal, which ended in a 2-2 draw. The player has traveled to Spain for consultations with specialists while continuing his examinations in Manchester.
The club emphasizes that a comprehensive assessment will determine the precise timeline for Rodri’s recovery, and they are currently not providing any expected dates from within the ‘citizens’ camp.
Initial reports indicated that Rodri had suffered a cruciate ligament injury, one of the most serious types of injuries in football, raising concerns that the Spaniard could spend the remainder of the season sidelined.
Additionally, Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola mentioned that the return of the injured Kevin De Bruyne should not be anticipated in the next two matches.
