Liverpool Fans Fear the Worst as Rodri’s Injury Raises Fears of Zubimendi Swoop
Rodri’s season-ending injury has sent shockwaves through the Premier League, with Liverpool fans fearing the worst as Manchester City looks to strengthen their midfield options in the January transfer window.
The 28-year-old suffered a serious knee injury during City’s clash with Arsenal, and while the extent of his injury is not yet known, it’s clear that he’ll be out for the remainder of the season. This has left City short-staffed in midfield, and fans are already speculating about who might fill the void.
One name that’s been thrown into the mix is Real Sociedad’s Martin Zubimendi, who was heavily linked with a move to Liverpool during the summer transfer window. While the deal ultimately fell through, Zubimendi’s impressive form this season has only increased his stock, and City may now be keen to snap him up.
The thought of Zubimendi joining City is a daunting one for Liverpool fans, who had been counting on him to bolster their midfield options. With Arne Slot’s side struggling to find consistency this season, the loss of Zubimendi could be a significant blow.
"Imagine if Rodri has done his ACL and City go and get Zubimendi in January," one fan wrote on social media. "I think I’d implode đŸ˜‚đŸ˜‚."
Another fan agreed, saying: "I have a sly feeling City are going to go out and pick up Zubimendi."
While it’s still unclear whether City will make a move for Zubimendi, one thing is certain: Rodri’s injury has sent a ripple effect through the Premier League, and fans will be keeping a close eye on developments in the coming weeks.
