Aguero injury blow for City

London - Manchester City striker Sergio Aguero confirmed on Saturday that he has suffered a torn hamstring and is likely to miss next weekend's English Premier League trip to Arsenal.

"Studies confirmed I have a torn muscle. We have to think positive and try to recover in the best way possible," the Argentine international wrote on his Twitter account.

"For that, I've travelled to Italy where a specialist is treating me. I'll keep you up to date."

Aguero, who has 10 goals this season, missed the 3-0 win over Watford in the FA Cup third round on Saturday after picking up the injury in the 3-0 league win over Stoke on New Year's Day.
