Manchester City ace Rodrigo Hernandez has bagged a degree in Business Administration and Management.
SPORTbible are reporting that the Spaniard enrolled at Castellon University to study a Business Studies and Economics course during his time at Spanish club Villarreal.
As his career progressed, he moved to Premier League club Manchester City, but that did not stop him from pursuing his educational dreams even though he was a regular under Pep Guardiola.
Rodri believes education is the key, and he quickly used the lockdown period to study hard and had his oral examination a few days after Spain's Euro 2020 opener with Sweden in the summer.
It is understood the former Atletico Madrid star was at the very end of his degree in the same year that he won the Premier League for the first time at Etihad.
Speaking to Manchester City's official website, Rodri admitted undertaking the program while playing professionally was not an easy task.
“I am finished. I just have to do a last essay, a small essay, but all the subjects, the big essay at the end is done," he said.
“It was tough work, but at the end it was nice.
“You have time for everything. Of course, it is very demanding profession as a footballer because it demands you not only playing, training and the games, it is also the rest and the care you have to take about yourself," he added.
