Manchester City’s key midfielder will miss the next match with a hamstring injury, a concern for the manager amid the player’s recent recovery from a serious injury.

Rhodri suffered a hamstring strain and was substituted against Brentford before the international break. Due to this injury, he was also unable to help the Spanish national team in the World Cup qualifiers.
“He’s not ready. I don’t know when he’ll be back,” Guardiola said briefly at the press conference.
Of particular concern is the fact that Rhodri missed much of last season with a torn cruciate ligament in his knee. The coaching staff approached his return with great caution, dosing playing time. The new injury, albeit of a different nature, is a wake-up call for a team that is heavily dependent on the Spanish midfielder’s play in midfield.
