Rodri to Miss Spain World Cup Qualifiers Due to Injury

Rodri's hamstring injury forces him out of Spain's World Cup qualifiers, continuing his fitness challenges since a serious knee injury last year, Spain leads qualifiers with a perfect record.

  • On October 6, 2025, Spain confirmed Manchester City midfielder Rodri Hernandez will miss World Cup qualifiers against Georgia and Bulgaria, sidelining him for two matches during this international break.
  • Rodri underwent anterior cruciate ligament surgery after September 2024 ACL injury and missed the season start due to a groin problem at the Club World Cup while rebuilding fitness at Manchester City.
  • Taken off early in the match after clutching his right leg, Rodri was replaced by Nico González and later seen on the bench with a bandaged leg, confirmed by Manchester City medical tests.
  • Borja Iglesias has been recalled to the squad, while Luis de la Fuente will test midfield alternatives as six points would secure Spain's World Cup progress under the six points scenario for World Cup qualification.
  • Rodri told Sky Sports `I felt a little bit in the hamstring-- but it seems as though it's not that much`, and Manchester City will closely monitor his progress, Pep Guardiola said.
