Manchester City player Rodri’s knee injury means that he will not play any more football this season. This was announced by manager Pep Guardiola at a press conference on Friday. Rodri has been diagnosed with a cruciate ligament injury in his knee. He had been to a specialist in Spain for examinations. – He was operated on this morning for the cruciate ligament and a little meniscus. He will return next season. This season is over, said Guardiola. The Spaniard had to leave the pitch early in last Sunday’s 2-2 draw against Arsenal. The injury is a hard blow for Erling Braut Haaland’s club. City manager Guardiola has never hidden how important Rodri is to the club. He recently referred to the 28-year-old as a possible Ballon d’Or winner. The midfield star was central when Spain became European champions this summer. Manchester City face Newcastle in the Premier League on Saturday. (NTB)
