Sergio Aguero injured in car crash

Manchester City have confirmed that striker Sergio Aguero has been injured in a car crash.

Reports suggest the 29-year-old fractured a rib after the taxi in which he was travelling in Amsterdam hit a lamp post.

He was returning from a concert with his girlfriend when the accident happened.

The striker has netted six goals in six Premier League games this season. That has helped City take top spot in the table, they're ahead of their rivals United on goal difference ahead of Saturday's game with Chelsea.

Aguero posed for a picture with Colombian singer Maluma on his Instagram account. He was understood to have been attending his concert before the accident happened.

 

@maluma . Gracias por la invitación !! 👌🏽
