“We Won’t Rush Rodri’s Return” – Guardiola Speaks on Injury Recovery
Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has made it clear he won’t rush Rodri’s return from injury, saying he won’t take any “stupid” risks.
Rodri recently resumed training after being sidelined for over five months due to a cruciate knee ligament injury he suffered against Arsenal. Initially ruled out for the season, there is now hope he could make a comeback before the campaign ends.
Guardiola acknowledged the excitement around Rodri’s recovery but stressed the need for caution. He hinted that the midfielder might feature in the final Premier League games or the latter stages of the FA Cup but ruled out an early return.
“The fans aren’t the only ones excited. It’s been five, six months, but we need to take it step by step. We can’t make stupid decisions just to bring him back sooner,” Guardiola said.
He added that while Rodri has started touching the ball and interacting with teammates in the locker room, he is still not close to returning. However, Guardiola admitted there’s now a possibility he could play before the season ends.
Captain of the Morocco national team, Achraf Hakimi, has shared his thoughts on the controversial topic surrounding AFCON 2025.
It can be noted that the team was accused of taking towels belonging to opposition goalkeepers during matches, which sparked criticism from fans and observers, with many calling for consequences.
Hakimi expressed his disappointment over the situation, stating “I don’t feel proud about the image we gave off with the towels. Even though that happened, the team did well in the competition. We showed respect for our opponents in the tournament.”
Ademola Lookman has praised Atlético Madrid following their 2–0 victory over Barcelona.
It can be noted that the match ended 2–0, with goals scored by Julián Álvarez and Alexander Sørloth.
Speaking in a recent interview, Lookman commended the team’s performance and unity “It was a good result. The performance of the team, especially not to concede here, shows the work everyone’s been doing and the togetherness.”
Young Arsenal player Max Dowman is making headlines after reaching a major milestone—becoming the youngest player to feature in the UEFA Champions League knockout stages.
The previous record was held by Lamine Yamal, who made his appearance at 16 years and 223 days. Dowman, however, has now broken that record at just 16 years and 97 days.
The youngster continues to show great promise, adding another impressive achievement to his early career.
