Sergio Aguero has reportedly been ‘diagnosed with an irregular heartbeat’, Spanish media are claiming.
The 33-year-old was taken to hospital in an ambulance after suffering from chest pains and breathing difficulties during Barcelona’s 1-1 draw with Alaves.
He fell to the floor and needed treatment from medics after being seen clutching his chest.
As well as complaining of chest pains and difficulty breathing, Aguero is reported to have been suffering from a high heart rate.
Thankfully he made it back to his feet and walked off the pitch but tests at Barcelona Hospital showed the former Manchester City man to have a ‘cardiac arrhythmia,’ according to well-respected Spanish outlet SPORT.
The report goes on to claim that further in-depth tests will be carried out, but he is said to have already been diagnosed with an irregular heartbeat.
Spanish outlet Marca also report Aguero will have a full heart check in the coming days to work out the extent of the problem.
He will be kept under observation and therefore is likely to miss the Champions League clash against Dynamo Kiev on Tuesday.
