SERGIO AGUERO will miss the Manchester derby with injury, Pep Guardiola has confirmed.
The Argentine limped off during Manchester city’s 2-1 victory over Chelsea on saturday night and his manager has confirmed he will be out for a “few weeks”.
Speaking ahead of city’s Champions League clash with Shakhtar Donestk tommorow night, Guardiola said the forward would miss out but could not confirm how long or the exact nature of the injury.
Athough he was a little hazy on details,city host United on December 7 in the premier league and Guardiola confirmed the 31-year-old would definitely miss the local deby.
Aguero hopped off in the 77th minute of Saturday’s game holding what appeared to be his groin or upper thigh and will almost certainly be replaced by Gabriel Jesus for the upcoming games.
But when asked exactly what muscle Aguero had injured, Guardiola simply gestured downwards and said: “something at the front, I don’t know the word in English.”
