Yesterday, Manchester City and Arsenal played an exciting match at the Etihad Stadium, which ended in a 2-2 draw. However, the true concern for the City team was not the result but the unexpected injury to Rodri Hernández. The Spanish midfielder, a key player in Pep Guardiola's system, had to leave the field in the 21st minute after a strong impact on his right knee.

The player exited in tears, causing anxiety among the fans. Initial medical assessments suggest Rodri might have suffered a cruciate ligament rupture, which would mean he will miss the remainder of the season. Although further detailed exams are needed to confirm the severity of the injury, all signs point to a long recovery period for the midfielder.

City Could Turn to Zubimendi

This situation has led to a change in plans for the Spanish national team, where Rodri was a key figure. It appears that Martín Zubimendi, a midfielder from Real Sociedad, will likely step in to cover the defensive midfield role in the upcoming international fixtures, as he did during the previous Euro. Spain has important matches ahead, starting with Denmark on October 12, followed by Serbia on October 15.

The potential increase in playing time for Martín Zubimendi could be cause for concern, both for his club and the national team, given the physical demands of his role in both squads. Real Sociedad faces a tough schedule, raising the risk of overload injuries, commonly referred to as the "FIFA virus." This scenario has already affected Mikel Oyarzabal, another crucial player for the club, who missed a significant portion of the season due to injury.
