  • Blues boss Enzo Maresca said last week he was "not worried" about transfer speculation, though Rodri has one year remaining on his contract at the club.
  • British media reported the midfielder may miss the Premier League season opener on August 21, though City expect the issue to keep him sidelined for only a few weeks.
  • Despite his on-field success captaining Spain to World Cup glory this month as player of the tournament, uncertainty persists regarding Rodri's future at the Etihad Stadium.
