Rodri, Manchester City and Spain
After Spain’s World Cup win
Rodri is reportedly set to miss the start of Manchester City’s season because of surgery on an unspecified injury. The setback comes after he captained Spain to the World Cup and won the tournament’s Golden Ball.
The issue adds uncertainty around his City future, with his contract entering its final year. City want a renewal, but his fitness, Spain dominance and Real Madrid links keep his situation under close attention.
