Manchester City midfielder Rodri has shared an encouraging update on his rehabilitation process. Speaking to FourFourTwo, the Spanish international expressed optimism about his progress while emphasizing the importance of family support during his recovery.
“Everything seems to be going well with my rehab,” Rodri said. “It’s been good to spend time with my family here. The energy they give me is important, and a long time had passed since I was back at home. Because of my injury, the award has been like a bottle of oxygen for me.”
Hopeful for a Return This Season
While Rodri remains uncertain about the exact timeline for his comeback, he revealed his determination to play again before the season concludes. He stated, “I want to come back this season, that would be important for me. I don’t know if I can, but I’d like to be involved for a month or two and finish the season.”
His potential return would be a significant boost for Manchester City, who rely on his presence in midfield to control games and dictate tempo.
A Crucial Fixture Ahead
Meanwhile, City faces a critical test against Liverpool in their next Premier League match. A defeat could see the Reds extend their lead to 11 points at the top, potentially putting a dent in City’s title defense. This high-stakes encounter could shape the course of the title race, making it a must-win game for Pep Guardiola’s side.
Rodri’s positive outlook on his recovery offers hope for Manchester City fans eagerly awaiting his return. However, the immediate focus for the team remains their crucial clash against Liverpool. With the title race heating up, City will need to dig deep and deliver a strong performance in Rodri’s absence.
