Aguero scores first Barcelona goal in training match after returning from injury

Sergio Aguero has scored his first goal for Barcelona in a training match after returning from a lengthy spell on the sidelines.

Aguero signed for Barca on a free transfer in the summer after leaving Manchester City, but was forced to wait for his debut after picking up a serious calf issue in training.

The Argentine sat out the first two and a half months of the 2021-22 campaign, missing nine games across all competitions, but has got some much needed minutes in a friendly against UE Cornella.

Barca played out a 2-2 draw with the Spanish third tier outfit at Ciutat Esportiva on Wednesday morning, with Aguero and Philippe Coutinho grabbing the goals for Ronald Koeman's side.
