Manchester City star Rodri has sustained a knee ligament injury that will keep him off the pitch indefinitely, the club has confirmed. In a statement released on Wednesday, City said that the Spanish midfielder suffered “ligament injury to his right knee” during the first half of Sunday’s draw with Arsenal, adding that he traveled to Spain to see a specialist after preliminary tests in Manchester.
The midfielder also played a key role in Spain winning a record fourth European Championship over the summer. His play for club and country have led to his being one of the main contenders for the 2024 Ballon d’Or, the annual soccer award celebrating the best players in the men’s and women’s game. He is one of four City players nominated for the 2024 edition of soccer’s most coveted individual prize.
