Rodri chose Montenegro for vacation — rides horses at Etno Katun Durmitor

After winning the World Cup — Spain defeated Argentina 1:0 after extra time — Rodri, who was named the tournament's best player, chose Durmitor for part of his vacation.

From the pitch to the mountain

The captain of the Spanish national team and a Manchester City player was spotted at several tourist locations in Montenegro: Eco Village Nevidio, Lovcenac and finally Durmitor. He arrived at Etno Katun Durmitor with his partner, where he rode horses.

Published video shows how he first takes photos with people at the location, then sits on a horse and leaves. The clip reflects the footballer's different, calmer side after the intensity of the World Cup.

Rodri is a Manchester City player and is the subject of interest from Real Madrid, which has continued to follow him throughout the summer.

Regarding the visit, Etno Katun Durmitor stated: "It is a great honor for us that Rodri, the captain of the Spanish national team and one of the best footballers in the world, chose Etno Katun Durmitor to enjoy nature and horseback riding. We are especially pleased that we had the opportunity to be hosts to a top athlete and a person who, through his work, talent and modesty, inspires millions of people around the world. We wish him lots of luck and success in the continuation of his career."

The short stay in Montenegro appears to be an opportunity for relaxation and recharging ahead of returning to club duties and the possible extended transfer discussion surrounding the player.
