Javi Gracia says Rodrigo will be a 'very important' player in Leeds United's quest to avoid relegation, but insists his main focus is for the forward to recover to his best possible condition.
Rodrigo made his first appearance since injuring his ankle in January when he emerged from the bench to replace Patrick Bamford during the Whites' 2-2 draw against Brighton on Saturday.
He is still the club's leading goal scorer with 10 in the Premier League, but Gracia is aware of the fact that the Spaniard must not be rushed back into action.
