And, now SPORT is reporting that Aguero has been diagnosed with cardiac arrhythmia, i.e., a heart rhythm rate disorder. Further tests will now be carried out on the Argentine international to get a better picture of his situation, as he remains in the hospital under observation.
The report adds that Aguero is as calm as possible regarding the situation but is naturally concerned with this diagnosis. Given his situation, it would be safe to assume that the 33-year-old is all but certain to miss Barcelona’s UEFA Champions League game against Dynamo Kyiv on Tuesday.
There has as yet been no official statement from the club, but there was direct communication on centre-back Gerard Pique, who will miss the crucial Champions League tie at Dynamo Kiev with a right knee injury.
The Catalan giants sit third in Group E, two points clear of Dynamo but one behind second-placed Benfica and six behind leaders Bayern Munich with just three matches to go.
