Manchester City: Pep Guardiola hopes to have Rodri back for the Brentford game.
Having been out for several weeks, Rodri could return for Manchester City this Saturday against Brentford. Pep Guardiola, however, acknowledged that the Spanish midfielder was not yet fully recovered physically.
Manchester City’s manager, Pep Guardiola, hopes to be able to recover Rodri for the Premier League match against Brentford, scheduled for this Saturday. Absent since the Citizens’ victory over Arsenal on 19 April (2-1), the Spanish midfielder still must undergo one final physical test before a final decision is made regarding his participation.
At a press conference, Guardiola acknowledged that his player was not yet fully recovered, while leaving the door open to a quick return. “ We will see about that this afternoon », the Catalan coach told reporters. “We have managed to move forward without him for several months, but he still does not feel completely comfortable », Guardiola added. “When will he be ready? We will know this afternoon. I hope it will be tomorrow. » Rodri has already missed three matches with Manchester City, even though the English champions have won their first two matches played without their midfield maestro.
