Manchester City midfielder Rodri has spoken of playing at the back for manager Pep Guardiola.

Indeed, Rodri sees a future for himself in central defence after playing there to help solve City's injury problems.

"I am discovering myself as a player. Guardiola asked me how I see myself there and I decided to try because the team needed me," he said at a Spain press conference.

"Obviously there is always a time of adaptation, but because of my physical and technical characteristics, I also think that there is something in common with my normal position, apart from certain new aspects.

"It is true that the new position is a bit more delicate, but with time I think I could perfectly adapt myself.

"My virtues make me shine more as central midfielder, but with time I could also do well as central defender."
