The guy without whom it is difficult to imagine the mighty Manchester City ended the season practically at its beginning.
Rodri, the midfielder of the champions of England, has torn the anterior cruciate ligament of his knee, "Marka" reported, referring to sources from the Island.
"The worst-case scenario could soon be confirmed - the examinations that Rodri underwent in Manchester show that he is dealing with a torn ligament, but everything will be confirmed at the filming in Madrid," wrote the Spanish newspaper.
If the new recordings show the same, it would also mean that Rodri has finished the season, because it is the most serious injury for sportsmen.
The Spanish master was injured during the Premier League derby against Arsenal.
The player who, along with Antonio Ridiger, had the least rest last season with injuries, started in the final of the European Championship in Germany.
He recently recovered, but a new injury followed - this time due to a long absence.
