MANCHESTER CITY’S RODRI EXPECTED TO MISS SEASON DUE TO ACL INJURY

Date:

Manchester City midfielder Rodri is expected to miss the remainder of the season following tests conducted on Monday morning, which indicated he suffered an anterior cruciate ligament tear in his right knee during Sunday’s draw with Arsenal.

The Spain international is set for further examinations, but initial findings strongly suggest an ACL tear, and he is likely to undergo surgery in Barcelona.

Rodri was substituted in the 21st minute of the match after falling to the ground and clutching his knee, marking his first Premier League start of the season.

Rodri is among the frontrunners for the Ballon d’Or, making this injury a significant setback for Manchester City as they pursue their fifth consecutive Premier League title.
