Manchester City forward Sergio Aguero has dismissed fears of a calf injury as he declared himself fit for Argentina’s 2018 FIFA World Cup match against Paraguay later today.
The 28-year-old was initially feared to have suffered an injury against Peru that may keep him out for weeks but the former Atletico Madrid star has declared himself ready to play as soon as tonight.
"I am doing much better. After the match against Peru I had two days to recover and today I played a bit of football. I am feeling pretty good," Aguero told reporters.
"Luckily, the pain that I felt before the Peru match has gone away - it was my adductor and I am positive that to protect my adductor I overworked my calf muscle. I am better though.
"We did some studies, everything looked good and I am trying to be as ready for Tuesday as I can be."
Aguero has scored 11 goals in eight games for Manchester City in the 2016/17 season and will hope to be in the side to face Everton after the international break.
