However, Manchester City boss, Pep Guardiola who shared the news on Friday, said the midfielder was getting better.

He said the player could be returning to action during the FIFA international break in September.

Guardiola said as quoted by Fabrizio Romano via SPBAJ, “Rodri is getting better but had a big injury against Al Hilal.

“He’s trained better, we hope after the international break is when he will be really fit.”

Rodri spent almost the whole of 2024-25 season on the sideline due to injury.
