The 2024 Ballon d’Or winner has not featured since last year after suffering a ruptured anterior cruciate ligament (ACL).<\/p>\n

Spain international Rodri had been spotted working on an individual training programme<\/a> at City’s Etihad Campus at the end of February.<\/p>\n

Sources say the Club World Cup in June is a realistic timeframe for his return to action, rather than the remaining four games of the Premier League campaign or the FA Cup final.<\/p>\n

Guardiola said last week: “Every training session he [Rodri] does with us, he does well. Rodri wants [to play] but the doctor will have to say, ‘Pep you have the green light to give him minutes’.<\/p>\n

“I want to rely on the doctors in that case.”<\/p>\n

City are currently fourth in the Premier League and relinquished hold of the title after four successive triumphs to new champions Liverpool.<\/p>\n

They host Wolves on Friday (kick-off 20:00 BST) and face Crystal Palace in the FA Cup final at Wembley on 17 May.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
