"Dani Rodriguez has undergone medical tests at Barcelona after being stretchered off on Sunday while playing against Barbastro. The test have shown that Rodriguez has a "partial rupture of the quadriceps tendon" and a decision on whether or not he needs to undergo surgery will now be made, according to Diario Sport. While it's another serious setback for the youngster, it does ease fears that he may have suffered an ACL injury."
"Barcelona will now decide whether to press ahead with conservative treatment or send Rodriguez for surgery. Whichever way is chosen, it does seem that the youngster will be out for a lengthy spell. There's no doubt it's a really brutal setback for Rodriguez and means his patience will once again be tested. This is not the first serious injury he's suffered recently as he dislocated his shoulder on his first-team debut last season."
