Rodri has encountered an injury setback, which means he is not expected to be fully fit until after the September international break, as stated by manager Pep Guardiola. Rodri spent most of last season sidelined due to a ruptured anterior cruciate ligament. He did come back as a substitute in a late Premier League match and appeared in the Club World Cup but suffered a groin issue. Guardiola noted that while Rodri has had some improvement in training, the primary concern remains ensuring he returns without pain.
Rodri has suffered an injury setback and is unlikely to be "really fit" until after the September international break, according to manager Pep Guardiola.
Rodri was sidelined for most of the 2024-25 season due to a ruptured anterior cruciate ligament injury he sustained last September.
Guardiola mentioned that Rodri trained better in the last few days and hopes he can play some minutes in upcoming games, but the priority is his fitness.
The team's goal is to prevent Rodri from returning to play with pain to avoid further injury, as he has been training with the squad.
