The most fear of becoming a "glass man"! Mr. Golden Ball was seriously injured again, Guardiola signed 115 million euros to replace Rodri

Manchester City coach Guardiola confirmed Rodri's injury in an interview, and the player may return after the national team match day in September. In the Club World Cup match against Riyadh Crescent in July, Rodri came on as a substitute and was replaced in the 110th minute of overtime. Manchester Evening News said that Rodri's injury was groin problem. The biggest problem with this injury was that it would recur, which would have a huge impact on the player's condition. Rodri is currently training alone and will miss the next pre-season training match.

Last year, Rodri beat Vinicius to win the Golden Globe Awards, becoming the first player in Manchester City's history to win the Golden Globe Awards. Unfortunately, Rodri suffered from injuries at the beginning of last season. He missed from September last year until he was at the end of May this year, and he missed for up to 9 months. Now that Rodri's injury has just improved, he has been affected by injuries again, what makes fans even more worried is whether Rodri's frequent injuries will turn him into a "glass man's physique."

29-year-old Rodri is currently the best midfielder in the world football world and also has an irreplaceable position in Manchester City's lineup. Due to his absence last season, Manchester City's midfield was completely out of control. The team's midfield lacked the core of offense and defense conversion, and his ability to pass the ball forward also declined. Although Manchester City made reinforcements during the winter window, the impact of Rodri's absence was not solved, and ultimately led to the team's poor performance, missing the championship in the league, and not going further in the Champions League, which also shows Rodri's impact on Manchester City.

It is also because of Rodri's injury problem that whether Manchester City will continue to renew their contracts with high salaries is full of variables. Previously, there was news that Manchester City would provide Rodri with a four-year contract, making him one of the highest-paid players in Manchester City and even the Premier League. However, Rodri's injuries have been repeated, and it is unknown whether players can still get such a high-paid contract. With Rodri's injury uncertain, Manchester City has spent 115 million euros to fill the gap in the midfield.

Marcelona signed Spanish midfielder Gonzalez for a transfer fee of 60 million euros last season, but the players' performance is still far from Rodri. This summer, Manchester City's offensive core De Bruyne left the team, and Guardiola once again signed midfielders such as Cherki and Reindes in the transfer market. With Reindes signed by 55 million euros, Manchester City actually does not lack players in the position of the midfielder. What they lack is players who can replace Rodri. However, with the current lineup configuration and the technical characteristics of the players, it is difficult for Gonzalez or Reindes to do this.
