The seriousness of the injury was confirmed after medical examinations conducted on Monday morning.
“Manchester City midfielder Rodri will miss the remainder of the season after tests this morning confirmed he suffered an anterior cruciate ligament tear in his right knee during Sunday’s draw with Arsenal,” a source told ESPN.
The Spanish international has been a key player in Pep Guardiola’s squad, and his absence will undoubtedly be felt as the team continues to compete in various competitions.
The injury comes at a critical point in the season, potentially affecting City’s hopes in domestic and European contests.
