Argentina manager Lionel Scaloni has claimed that Sergio Agüero has not been participating in full Manchester City training due to injury.
Agüero didn't join up with the national squad this month because of this, missing out on a 2-2 draw against Germany and a 6-1 win over Ecuador.
The Premier League's joint-top goalscorer this season has been in fine form with his club side, but there are now growing fears that he may be yet another name added to Pep Guardiola's injury list.
Reported by The Mirror, Scaloni stated: "Sergio Agüero is not here [with the national team] because he's been carrying a problem and has not been training 100% with his club".
