Dreadful News from England: Spanish International Suffers Groin Injury

Pulse Sports Team 20:19 - 19 April 2026

Spanish football midfielder Rodri has sustained a groin injury and will undergo tests in the coming hours. The 2024 Ballon d'Or winner did not finish Sunday's English Premier League clash between his Manchester City and Arsenal London (2:1).

The Spanish international started for the home side and played almost the entire match. However, he went down late in the game, visibly in pain, and was replaced by Nico in the 88th minute. “We will conduct tests tonight,” said manager Pep Guardiola after the match.

Rodri had already missed a significant portion of the first half of the season due to a hamstring injury and virtually the entire 2024-2025 campaign with a torn anterior cruciate ligament. The information was reported by the Associated Press.
