Mr Samuels said: "He seemed a really nice bloke. Wasn’t bothered at all that I’d asked for a photo and didn’t hesitate to say yes, but I apologised for disturbing him nonetheless."
Pub landlord Simon Britton, a keen United supporter, was out at the time but said he was 'gutted' to miss the footballer, who scored the winning goal as City lifted the Champions League in June.
"I'd have got a photo of me in my United shirt with him," said Mr Britton. "I'm telling everyone he came to try our homemade onion rings but the kitchen was closed.
"I think it's great. If he comes in again I'll buy him a pint."
Rodri's visit to The Bridge Inn came just over 24 hours after he took to the field in City's final pre-season friendly against Atletico Madrid in South Korea on Sunday.
