Man City boss Pellegrini announces extent of Aguero absence

Manchester City expect Sergio Aguero to miss a month with his hamstring injury.

Aguero suffered a hamstring injury while playing for Argentina against Ecuador in a World Cup qualifier last week.

Speaking at his pre-match news conference ahead of Saturday's home game against Bournemouth, City boss Manuel Pellegrini said: "Sergio has a muscle injury, an important injury. I don't think he will be back before one month."

Pellegrini must also do without David Silva after the forward was forced off the park after just 10 minutes of Spain's Euro 2016 qualifier against Luxembourg with an ankle injury.
