It’s always a sad day in the world of sport every time an athlete decides to hang up his boots, but it’s even worse when they have to retire because of injuries. This fate befell Premier League legend Sergio Aguero as the Argentinian forward had to retire from football at just 33.

Aguero left Manchester City after winning it all at the club. He joined FC Barcelona this summer and scored a goal for the club in the El Clasico. However, that goal ended up becoming the last goal in his career, as the striker had to retire in October.

Sergio Aguero suffered chest pains and dizziness during Barca’s game against Alaves and had to be substituted. He underwent a few tests and was ruled out of playing football at all by the doctors. He announced his retirement in a tearful press conference with FC Barcelona.

Sergio Aguero reveals how he doesn’t follow football anymore

Aguero spoke about the situation in an interview with TyC Sports and revealed that he wants to play, but he’s scared. He also added that the doctors told him that he was lucky not to have a heart attack. Moreover, he doesn’t watch football or football news anymore.

“I want to play, but I’m scared. Returning to play comes into my head from time to time but I know it’s something I can’t do. I don’t watch football or the news, I don’t care what’s going on. They told me I was lucky because I could easily have had a heart attack. Now it’s time to relax. I’m happy with what I’m doing,” Aguero revealed.
