Key general has returned to Manchester City but for how long?

Rodri has returned to Manchester City after Spain’s World Cup triumph and completing his holidays, Enzo Maresca confirmed ahead of the FA Community Shield against Arsenal. The midfielder also underwent minor back surgery after the tournament, and while his presence at City was expected, the longer-term uncertainty remains. Barcelona are pushing to sign Rodri, and Maresca said anything can happen before the transfer window closes, noting he saw Rodri at the training ground and that he “looks good.” It has also been reported Rodri is unlikely to train next week, suggesting a move to Barcelona could be resolved soon.
