Manchester City on alert as Rodri picks up fresh injury | OneFootball

Manchester City defeated Brentford by 1-0 this Sunday (5), with a goal from star Erling Haaland in the match that closed the seventh round of the Premier League, and which was marked by a new injury to the Spaniard Rodri.

Injury worries Guardiola

The winner of the 2024 Ballon d'Or had to leave the field at 22 minutes. The 29-year-old player missed almost the entire last season due to a serious right knee injury.

Coach's statements

“I hope it's not too serious,” said Guardiola to Sky Sports. “I don't know the extent of the damage,” he added later in his press conference, confirming that it “seems” to be a hamstring injury.

Rodri leaves the field dejected

Disconsolate, Rodri sat on the pitch before heading to the locker room, being replaced by his compatriot Nico González.
