Manchester City striker Sergio Aguero will travel to Barcelona to see a knee specialist amid fears his season might be over.

He was forced off just before half-time
during the home side's 5-0 Premier League win over Burnley, following a challenge by defender Ben Mee.

The 32-year-old tweeted on Tuesday: "The scans I did have confirmed that I have damaged my left knee.

"I'm in good spirits and so focused to come back as soon as possible."

During his post-match interviews, City boss Pep Guardiola revealed the Argentine had been suffering from a knee problem before the match.
