Argentina star Sergio Aguero could reportedly retire from professional football due to his heart problem, according to a shock report in Spain.

Aguero suffered breathing problems while playing for new club Barcelona against Alaves at the Nou Camp last month.

The 33-year-old was taken to hospital for heart tests and will not play again for at least the next three months while further examinations are carried out.

However, Catalunya Ràdio’s ‘El Matí’ show claims that the pathology of Aguero is more complicated than expected.

And they state that his condition could force him to stop playing altogether.

This latest report states that ‘the medical resonances and stress tests that he has undergone in recent days are detailing that the heart problem is more serious than it was initially valued’ at first.

And that could lead to Aguero being ‘incompatible’ with pro football ‘at a level required by Barcelona’.

No official comment has been made regarding Aguero’s condition from the club.

Aguero’s former side Manchester City have rallied around their legend since his scare – with boss Pep Guardiola sending him a clear message that his health and the rest of his life is much more important than what is left of his career.

He said: “Of course, it is difficult news for everyone. But especially for him and his family.

“We wish him well, he knows it, from all the people at Manchester City.

“We wish him a speedy recovery, but it does not matter about the time. Health and life is much more important than anything else and he knows it.

“I’m pretty sure he is in very good hands, really good doctors will take care of him and he will take care of himself.

“And come back if he can – otherwise enjoy his life and enjoy what he has done. It depends, I am not a doctor.#

“I don’t know precisely what he has, but be careful and be safe for the rest of his life.”
