UEFA Champions League: With the all-new UEFA Champions League format set to kick off on Tuesday, fixture congestion in football is at an all-time high. With many big names coming out and speaking against the drastic number of games they have to play, Manchester City midfielder Rodri has warned that the players are ‘close; to going on strike.

“Yes, I think we are close to that (Players going on strike). It is easy to understand. In general, if you ask any player he will say the same. It is not like it is just the opinion of Rodri, or whoever. I think it is the general opinion of the players, and if it remains this way, it will be a moment where we have no other option. Let's see. I don't know what is going to happen but it is something that worries us because we are the guys that suffer," said Rodri in a pre-match press conference.

Manchester City begin their 2024/25 UCL campaign against Inter Milan, their opponents from the 2023 UCL final. With the four added teams in the UCL, teams have to play two additional games in the league stage followed by additional knockout games depending on the side’s end position in the table.
