He hasn’t featured for Manchester City since September at the Etihad when he suffered an ACL injury against Arsenal. With Manchester City’s most important player back in training, attention has shifted to when he could return to the pitch. Now a new report indicates that he could return for the FA Cup final against Crystal Palace at Wembley.

If he is that would be a fantastic result for him and for Pep Guardiola’s side. It would be nice and a special moment if Rodri returns before that. But as long as he is ready for next season and over his ACL injury trumps all other scenarios.
