Manchester City striker Sergio Aguero is unlikely to return before the New Year.

The Argentine striker will miss at least four weeks of action after suffering a knee ligament injury in Saturday's win at home to Everton.

The 26-year-old, who left the pitch in tears, suffered the injury in a collision with Toffees midfielder Muhamed Besic.

Aguero has been in flying form lately and is the Premier Leauge's top scorer with 14 goals.

It means he also misses the crucial final Champions League group game against Roma on Wednesday night.
