Manchester City striker Sergio Aguero has played down the severity of the injury he picked up against Blackburn Rovers on Saturday, insisting that he will be joining up with the Argentina squad on Monday.
The former Atletico Madrid star had to be taken off in the first half during the 4-0 win over Steve Kean's side and City assistant David Platt had predicted that Aguero could be out for two weeks with the groin injury.
Aguero has now claimed, however, that he is to join up with the rest of the Argentina squad for their World Cup qualifying matches against Chile and Venezuela.
He Tweeted: "I am very happy because the doctor told me I have only a muscle bound! Tomorrow I come back to the national team!!"
