Manchester City star midfielder Rodri has withdrawn from international duty with Spain after picking up a muscle injury on Sunday — sparking concern among fans just weeks before key Premier League and Champions League fixtures.
While the injury is not believed to be serious, the decision to keep him out of the Spain squad is being described as a precautionary move.
Transfer insider Fabrizio Romano shared on Monday that the Spanish international is optimistic about a quick return: “I am feeling better, but no risk with the national team. I hope to be available in two weeks for the Everton game,” Rodri said.
His comments suggest Manchester City remain hopeful of having their midfield anchor back right after the international break — a major boost as they prepare for a crunch clash against Everton.
Spain will feel Rodri’s absence in their upcoming fixtures, but manager Luis de la Fuente is expected to test alternative midfield setups during this window.
Back in Manchester, Pep Guardiola and the City medical staff will be monitoring Rodri’s recovery closely, knowing how vital he is to their title charge and European ambitions.
