Barcelona have confirmed that midfielder Rodri will be out of action due to a thigh injury, with the Spanish international potentially sidelined for up to one month, according to reports from Barca Universal on Wednesday.
The 28-year-old sustained the injury during recent training sessions, though the club has not specified the exact grade of the muscle strain. Medical staff are optimistic about a full recovery within the estimated timeframe, which would see him return in early December.
Rodri's absence represents a significant blow for Barcelona, who rely heavily on his defensive midfield presence and distribution. The Catalans face a congested fixture schedule across La Liga and European competition during his expected absence.
