Rodri, Manchester City and Enzo Maresca.
Before Manchester City’s first season under Maresca.
Rodri is reportedly set to undergo surgery on a mystery injury after Spain’s World Cup campaign ends, creating an early setback for Manchester City’s new head coach. He is expected to miss most of pre-season.
Losing Rodri immediately complicates Maresca’s midfield planning and transition into the City job. The injury adds pressure after City already began a major rebuild, including Elliot Anderson’s expected record arrival and possible squad changes.
