Manchester City will not appeal against the three-match ban handed to Rodri for violent conduct, with the central midfielder missing the crunch visit to Arsenal in a fortnight.
Rodri saw red for raising his hands to Morgan Gibbs-White's throat during Saturday's 2-0 victory over Nottingham Forest and begins his suspension on Wednesday when City face Newcastle in the Carabao Cup.
Manager Pep Guardiola was not in favour of appealing the decision — stating that the 27-year-old had to 'learn his lesson' — and that view has been mirrored by the club.
