Manchester City midfielder Rodri has made a significant step towards recovery, returning to full team training after recovering from an ACL injury. The Spanish international was seen participating in drills at City’s Etihad Campus, passing the ball with teammates in a video shared by Sky Sports.

Rodri’s Recovery Boosts City’s Push for Key Competitions

Although the exact timing of his return to competitive action remains unclear, Rodri’s return to training is a major boost for manager Pep Guardiola and Manchester City, especially as the club prepares for a crucial end to the season. With key matches ahead, including securing a top-five Premier League finish to ensure Champions League qualification and the FA Cup final against Crystal Palace on May 17, Rodri’s presence could prove invaluable.

Potential Return in Club World Cup After FA Cup Final

If Rodri is not fully fit for the final league games or the FA Cup final, it is likely that he will be ready to join City’s squad for the upcoming Club World Cup, which takes place in June and July. His comeback would strengthen City’s midfield options as they aim to compete in multiple prestigious tournaments.
