Today, Manchester City officially confirmed that their key central midfielder, Rodri, has torn his ACL and will be sidelined for an extended period. The team's head coach, Pep Guardiola, shared his thoughts on the loss of the Spanish player.
Details: The Spanish coach compared Rodri's injury to last year's loss of Kevin De Bruyne, emphasizing the need to find a solution to the situation.
Quote:
"When you lose the best midfielder in the world for a long time, it’s a huge blow. But it’s my responsibility to find a way through it.
When a player is irreplaceable, we must overcome it as a team, just like we did when De Bruyne was out".
Reminder: Rodri is expected to miss the remainder of the season. He sustained the injury during the match against Arsenal (2-2).
Rodri is regarded as one of the main contenders to compete with Vinícius Júnior for the 2024 Ballon d'Or.
