Sergio Aguero left out of Manchester City squad versus Burnley due ‘little disturbance on his knee’

Sergio Aguero has been left out of the Manchester City squad to face Burnley due to a knee problem.

The striker, who has endured much misfortune with injuries, wasn’t deemed fit enough to take part in the clash against Sean Dyche’s side.

‘He’s not ready,’ Guardiola told the club’s website. ‘He needs to train and this morning he had a little disturbance in his knee.’

Aguero has been restricted to just two Premier League appearances so far this season, with knee and hamstring injuries restricting his playing time.

With Aguero out, Gabriel Jesus started up front for City at home to Burnley.

City manager Pep Guardiola revealed that Aguero couldn’t play as he is ‘not 100 per cent’

Aymeric Laporte and Oleksandr Zinchenko were both rested for the game against Burnley.  

Last season Aguero played just 24 times in the Premier League. The 32-year-old is into the final year of his contract at the Etihad Stadium.
