Rodri: I'm strong enough to cope in the Premier League


The Spanish midfielder cuts a strapping figure and says he is ready to lead Manchester City as they seek to improve on a domestic treble
Manchester City’s record-breaking signing Rodri Hernandez says he is strong enough to cope with the demands of the Premier League after moving from Atletico Madrid.
There were concerns that the midfielder was moved on from Atleti as a teenager owing to his size, but his development in the intervening years have put an end to suggestions that he couldn’t mix it physically.
Having excelled under Diego Simeone for only one season in the Atletico first-team having been re-signed from Villarreal, the 23-year-old says he is now ready for the rigours of English football.
