Sergio Agüero Undergoes Successful Surgery After Achilles Tear in Senior Match

Manchester City legend Sergio “Kun” Agüero has undergone successful surgery after tearing his left Achilles tendon in a +35 Senior League Cup match in Argentina. The 37-year-old was injured during a veterans’ game between Independiente and River Plate. He was carried off the pitch after suffering a heavy blow to his ankle and an MRI confirmed a complete rupture. Agüero went under the knife soon after the scans. He shared a smiling photo from his hospital bed and received well-wishes from his boyhood club. This setback puts his post-retirement return on hold. Recovery from a ruptured Achilles can take a year or more, raising doubts about his veteran comeback.
