Man City's Rodri: Players could strike due to plenty games

Manchester City midfielder Rodri has suggested the players are "close" to strike over concerns about their job growth.

The Spanish midfielder made 63 appearances for club and country last season during a campaign that does not end until the Euro 2024 final on July 14.

They face even more games this season with City competing in the expanded Champions League and the Club World Cup, which starts in June.

Asked about the possibility that the busy schedule could lead to a players' strike, Rodri said: "I think we are close to that, it is easy to understand. I think it's something general. I think if you ask any player he will say the same, it is not the opinion of Rodri or whatever.

"I think it's the general opinion of the players. And if it keeps this way, there will be a moment where we have no other option, I really think but let's see.

"I don't know what's going to happen, but it's something that worries us because we are the guys that suffer."

NFL Network opts not to renew contract of JIM TROTTER

One issue with sports leagues hiring reporters to cover their leagues is that there are unspoken limits on how aggressively those reporters can cover the league. Mike Silver, who previously worked at NFL Network, has been open about his departure. Jim Trotter , whose time at NFL Network is coming to an end, could be an example of a journalist who was a little too dedicated to his craft. Trotter tweeted on Monday, "This will be my final week with the NFL Media Group." "Over the weekend, I was informed that my contract would not be renewed." I'd like to express my gratitude to NFL Network and NFL.com for the lessons learned and proved over the last five years." That last line was most likely not a result of carelessness or coincidence. Lessons were learned and confirmed. Trotter may have learned and/or confirmed that there is a line that NFL Media reporters cannot cross — and that he may have crossed it.
