Rodri - knee
Manchester City midfielder Rodri (28) suffered an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury in his right knee during a 2-2 draw against Arsenal on 22 September 2024. The Spain international underwent surgery on 27 September 2024, which was expected to sideline him for the remainder of the season. (Source: Fabrizio Romano)
As of March 2025, while Rodri's return to training is encouraging, there is no definitive timeline for his return to competitive play. Guardiola stated: “It’s good, but he’s not so close to coming back. He’s touching the ball and back in the locker room.” He added: “He feels more confident and happier. I could not expect that before the end of the season in the Premier League, but maybe he is going to help us.” (Source: Manchester City)
🚨🔵 Rodri will undergo more tests in the next hours but Manchester City expect him miss the remainder of the season with ACL injury.
