Sergio Aguero will miss Manchester City's Premier League visit to Stoke City on Monday night after picking up a knee injury in training.

However, the Argentine is hopeful of being sidelined for just two weeks, which should see him return in time for City's next fixture at Everton on March 31.

"During yesterday's workout I had a discomfort in my left knee", the 29-year-old tweeted. The club's doctors told me I'll be back with the team in approximately two weeks. Now it's time for a full recovery'.

City's only other out-and-out senior striker Gabriel Jesus returned to action in late February after suffering knee ligament damage against Crystal Palace in December and he was on target last week in his first game back against Basel in the Uefa Champions League.

The bad news is more for Argentina, with Sergio set to miss their upcoming internationals, including a prestige friendly against Italy at the Etihad Stadium on 23 March.

If Aguero can stick to the two week timetable, City's record goalscorer may only be missing for one game.
