Rodri admitted that his situation might have been handled differently had there not been an international tournament on the horizon, but he believes his current responsibility is to remain locked in.
All contract and transfer discussions have been put on hold, with the midfielder explicitly clarifying that everything concerning his club future will wait until the conclusion of the tournament.
European champions Spain are preparing for the tournament in North America, which is scheduled to run from June 11 to July 19 across the United States, Mexico, and Canada.
Spain will compete in Group H during the opening stage, where the European giants are scheduled to face Cape Verde, Saudi Arabia, and Uruguay in group play.

Rodri urged his international teammates to replicate Rafael Nadal's mindset, referencing a documentary about the 22-time Grand Slam tennis champion that focused on continuous effort and fighting for one more ball.
He emphasized that Spain must play like a small team when out of possession, adopting a humble mindset that does not take their immense talent for granted while working hard without the ball.
