Sergio Aguero To Retire From Football Due to Heart Problems

Sergio Aguero will reportedly hang up his boots following his heart issue, which has sidelined him since Barcelona’s 1-1 home draw against Alaves on October 30.

The Argentine forward joined Barcelona on a free transfer after parting ways with his major club Manchester City last summer. As the journalist and Radio MARCA contributor Gerard Romero said on his Twitch channel, Aguero will announce his retirement in a press conference scheduled for next week.

Medical exams showed that Aguero suffered an arrhythmia and although those around him have tried to play down scenarios regarding a potential retirement, the Argentine has decided to call it a day with his football career.

Sergio Aguero’s football career began with Independiente in his early years before spending 5 seasons at Atletico Madrid. He was most notable when he arrived the English Premier league where he stayed 10 seasons with 184 goals in 257 appearances.
