Manchester City’s Rodri Faces Season-Ending Injury
Manchester City midfielder Rodri suffered a significant injury during Sunday’s 2-2 Premier League draw with Arsenal. Initial tests indicate a torn anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in his right knee.
Rodri, a Ballon d’Or nominee, is set for further tests but is likely to undergo surgery in Barcelona. This would rule him out for the remainder of the season.
The 28-year-old Spaniard is crucial to City’s success, with the team losing three of four Premier League fixtures he missed last season. Manager Pep Guardiola will need to adjust his strategy without Rodri.
In related news, Guardiola praised Arsenal players after the draw, acknowledging their strong performance.
