Rodri News: On bench Saturday

Rodri (groin) is on the bench for Saturday's clash against Tottenham.

Rodri is on the bench Saturday after sitting out most of the pre-season to manage his recovery from a long-term ACL injury. The midfielder has been cleared to play and could make his first appearance in over a year if called upon. Even limited minutes would mark a key step in his return, with a larger role expected once he gets up to speed.
