Manchester City star midfielder, Rodri has reportedly been 'ruled out for the remainder of the season' after reports in Spain claimed the midfielder suffered a 'torn cruciate ligament in his right knee' during his side's 2-2 draw against Arsenal.
According to MARCA the City defender 'sustained a cruciate ligament tear' during Sunday's game at the Etihad Stadium. They claim a 'more definitive diagnosis' will be available later on Monday with the midfielder 'set to undergo tests in Spain'.
The Spanish midfielder went down clutching his leg in agony after only 16 minutes of the Premier League clash, contesting Arsenal's Thomas Partey for the ball inside his own penalty area.
The 28-year-old went to the ground in pain, before appearing to hold back tears as he limped from the field alongside City's medical staff.
MARCA claims that the Spaniard 'is currently travelling to Madrid to undergo a new examination to confirm the serious injury. He also plans to visit several specialists to make a decision regarding the operation.'
His absence will be a colossal loss for Man City, with Rodri's influence in the side having helped City clinch their last four Premier League titles.
