Rodri Faces Extended Absence Due to Knee Injury
Manchester City confirmed that midfielder Rodri suffered a knee ligament injury during the match against Arsenal on Sunday, forcing his substitution in the 21st minute after a collision with Thomas Partey. Although there is no confirmed recovery timeline, manager Pep Guardiola indicated that Rodri will likely be out for an extended period, pending further medical evaluations in Spain.
Guardiola emphasized Rodri’s importance to the team, noting their unbeaten record in the last 48 Premier League matches he started. The team has struggled without him, losing four of the five games he missed last season.
Rodri, who played a crucial role in Spain’s Euro 2024 win, is also a candidate for the Ballon d’Or. Additionally, he recently discussed player concerns about the increasing number of matches in the football calendar.

Football legend Thierry Henry has reacted to Lionel Messi’s emotional response after Argentina lost the 2026 FIFA World Cup final to Spain.
It can be recalled that Spain defeated Argentina to lift the 2026 World Cup trophy. While Spain celebrated their victory, cameras captured Messi in tears after the final whistle.
Henry said Messi’s reaction showed just how much the game still means to him.
“Look at what it means to him. If you ever had any doubt about whether the guy still has any fire in his belly, look at him. Look at what it means.”
He added “You won already. And look at the guy. Look at the passion, desire and the love that he has for his country and how much he puts into it.”
Football legend Rio Ferdinand has shared his prediction ahead of the FIFA World Cup final between Spain and Argentina.
While many have backed different teams to lift the trophy, Ferdinand said some fans have underestimated Argentina’s quality.
He said “I find it difficult to bet against Argentina. They have demonstrated remarkable character, determination, and resilience. I believe people have been somewhat disrespectful by calling them an average team; they are not.”
He continued “I think it is inappropriate and disrespectful. If you are saying that, you clearly do not watch enough football, as they are an excellent team, and in challenging situations, they become even better and stronger. However, I do believe Spain will win the match.”
