Pep Guardiola has provided an update on the length of Rodri's expected lay-off after the midfielder sustained a serious knee injury against Arsenal on Sunday.
City's metronome was forced off 21 minutes into Sunday's tempestuous 2-2 draw with the Gunners at the Etihad Stadium.
Rodri fell into a heap clutching his right knee after falling during a run alongside Thomas Partey to meet a corner and was helped off the pitch by medical staff.
Numerous reports in recent days have claimed that the 28-year-old is set to miss the remainder of the season after initial tests uncovered the severity of the injury ahead of a further round of examinations.
