Manchester City might face a major blow as manager Pep Guardiola said that Rodri could be out of action for a month.
Guardiola suffered a hamstring injury during his club's 5-1 victory over Atalanta in the Champions League on Wednesday.
"Tomorrow we will know. Hopefully [Rodri will be out] between 10 days if it is not broken [torn]. If it is broken, it will be three weeks or one month," Goal.com quoted Guardiola as saying.
"It is hamstring, it looks like. When a guy runs and puts his hand in the hamstring position, it is a hamstring," he added.
Raheem Sterling scored thrice in the match helping Manchester City register a massive win.
Manchester City will now compete against Aston Villa in Premier League on October 26.
