Pep Guardiola in October 2025:
🗣️ “Rodri will recover his top level for the 2026 World Cup!”
🗣️ “I told Rodri: this isn’t a matter of six or seven months. It’s not: ‘I come back, I play, and I become the old Rodri again.’ No!”
🗣️ “The real Rodri, we’ll see him at the 2026 World Cup with Spain, and starting from next season, he’ll be at his very best.”
🗣️ “For a year, he’s been living on the operating table. The body changes, the rhythm changes, everything changes. He just needs time. And he’ll come back.”
Pep was 100% right. 👏🏻👑
