Spain’s midfield stalwart, Rodri, is poised to feature in Tuesday’s friendly clash against Brazil at the Santiago Bernabeu, confirmed manager Luis de la Fuente, despite the player’s three-day absence from training. De la Fuente reassured fans and media alike that Rodri, who was granted leave from the team’s camp to attend to personal matters, would join the squad without any setbacks and be ready for the upcoming match.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Rodri’s recent absence from training sessions, following his rest during Spain’s recent 1-0 defeat to Colombia, raised concerns about his availability for the Brazil encounter. However, De la Fuente clarified that Rodri’s personal matters were attended to, and the Manchester City midfielder would be fully prepared to contribute to the team’s efforts on the field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Having played a pivotal role in Manchester City’s historic Champions League triumph last year, Rodri enters the national team setup in peak form, adding depth and quality to Spain’s midfield options. Despite the setback of Friday’s defeat, Spain remains focused on their objectives, with key players like Rodri, Dani Carvajal, and Alvaro Morata rested strategically in anticipation of the upcoming European Championship in Germany.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
