Rodri controlling the drone at his residence
Residents in the same apartment complex as Rodri have reportedly contacted police, alleging that the midfielder has been flying a drone near their windows, raising privacy concerns.
According to neighbours' complaints, the drone has been seen hovering just outside several apartments, leaving some residents concerned that the device may be able to look into their homes while they relax indoors.
The complaints have now prompted authorities to step in, with police expected to speak to the Manchester City star to ensure he is aware of regulations surrounding drone use in residential areas.
One resident who contacted The Sun described the unsettling moment they noticed the drone outside their home.

“I live with my partner on a high floor and the last thing you expect to see when you're watching telly is a drone a metre outside your window,” the resident said.
The neighbour explained that the situation has caused anxiety within the household, particularly for their partner.
“My wife is very unnerved by it. One of the benefits of living so high up is that you are not overlooked by anyone, but now we are being plagued by Rodri and his drone.”
Residents say the drone-flying hobby has left them uneasy, claiming it feels like their privacy is being invaded in a place where they normally feel secure.
Living on higher floors is often seen as offering greater privacy, but the presence of a drone hovering near windows has reportedly changed that perception.
While no formal charges have been announced, police are expected to discuss the matter with Rodri as part of efforts to address the complaints and ensure that local drone laws are being followed.
