How do I rotate an image around its center using Pygame?

Question

I had been trying to rotate an image around its center in using pygame.transform.rotate() but it\'s not working. Specifically the part that hangs is rot_i

Everything you need for drawing an image in pygame

game_display = pygame.display.set_mode((800, 600))

x = 0
y = 0
angle = 0

img = pygame.image.load("resources/image.png")
img = pygame.transform.scale(img, (50, 50)) # image size

def draw_img(self, image, x, y, angle):
    rotated_image = pygame.transform.rotate(image, angle) 
    game_display.blit(rotated_image, rotated_image.get_rect(center=image.get_rect(topleft=(x, y)).center).topleft)

# run this method with your loop
def tick():
    draw_img(img, x, y, angle)
