Liverpool fans are still awaiting further evidence from our side as to whether we will be genuine title contenders this season but news of a long-term injury for Rodri can only strengthen our claim.
Speaking about the midfielder, Pep Guardiola provided an update: “Still we don’t have the definitive [diagnosis] but he will be out for a long time – a while.
“But there are some opinions that maybe it will be less than we expected.”
It seems that some reports suggesting a season-long absence may not be fully correct and there will no doubt be further updates provided soon, even though a lengthy lay-off seems obvious.
Arne Slot will not be reveling in injuries in other teams but this can only improve our chances of achieving ultimate success in his first campaign.
