Manchester City midfielder Rodri will miss the rest of the season after rupturing his anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), manager Pep Guardiola confirmed on Friday.

Rodri underwent surgery for the injury earlier on Friday, Guardiola said. The Spaniard injured his right knee during the team's 2-2 draw with Arsenal in the Premier League on Sunday.

The absence of Rodri, a key player for City, leaves a significant gap in the team's midfield as they continue their campaign in both domestic and international competitions.
