In a significant boost for Manchester City, Spanish midfielder Rodri has returned to individual training ahead of schedule after recovering from a knee injury sustained earlier this season. The 28-year-old was initially expected to miss the remainder of the season following a ruptured anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) during a match against Arsenal in September. However, recent footage shared by the club on their official social media account shows Rodri actively participating in drills at the training grounds, fueling optimism about his potential return to competitive action sooner than anticipated.
This development comes at a pivo
tal time for Manchester City, who have faced challenges this season, including an early exit from the UEFA Champions League and a diminished position in the Premier League standings. Manager Pep Guardiola has acknowledged the impact of Rodri's absence on the team's performance and has expressed hope that his return will bolster the midfield and contribute to improved results in upcoming fixtures.
Looking ahead, Manchester City's schedule includes the following matches:
Saturday, March 8, 2025: Nottingham Forest vs. Manchester City at 12:30 PM GMT (4:30 AM PST)
Saturday, March 15, 2025: Brighton & Hove Albion vs. Manchester City at 4:00 PM GMT (8:00 AM PDT)
Fans and analysts alike are hopeful that Rodri's return will provide the necessary impetus for Manchester City to navigate the remainder of the season successfully.
