Injured Rodri To Miss Villarreal, Villa Games, Confirms Guardiola
Injured Rodri: Manchester City will be without key midfielder Rodri for their upcoming matches against Villarreal and Aston Villa this week, manager Pep Guardiola has confirmed. The Spanish international is still recovering from a hamstring injury sustained earlier this month.
Rodri limped off in the first half of City's 1-0 win over Brentford on October 5 and subsequently withdrew from Spain's squad for their World Cup qualifiers. The 29-year-old also missed City's 2-0 victory against Everton over the weekend and will continue his rehabilitation as the club takes a cautious approach to his return.
"I don't think so for Villarreal or Aston Villa," Guardiola told British media when asked about Rodri’s availability. "It's not long, but it's muscular and you have to be careful. We've tried so many times, we've tried to not take a risk, but we have not been able to (manage) that. So we will see."
