DBasia.news – Sergio Aguero had to be rushed to the hospital after collapsing on the field when Barcelona hosted Alaves in the 2021-2022 LaLiga continuation at Camp Nou, Saturday (20/10). What happened to the Argentinean?
The match against Alaves became Aguero’s second chance to appear as a starter. But he was only able to last for 41 minutes on the field.
Aguero appeared troubled after undergoing an aerial duel in the 38th minute. Shortly after, he clutched his chest before sprawling out on the field.
There were suspicions that Aguero’s heart has problems. Concerns that made the player pulled out and rushed to the hospital.
Caretaker Barcelona, Sergi Barjuan, revealed Aguero’s last condition before being pulled off the field. But he did not confirm if there was a problem with his player.
“I was told that he (Aguero) was feeling a little dizzy. I just found out that he was taken to the hospital and I can’t say much more until I know,” Barjuan said after the game.
Barcelona then gave information regarding Aguero’s condition. The 33-year-old player must undergo further treatment to check the condition of his heart.
According to the COPE report, Aguero’s partner and brother rushed to the hospital where Aguero was being treated. On Sunday (31/10) morning, they came out and showed a thumbs up gesture indicating that the former Manchester City player’s condition was fine.
But it is still unknown how long Aguero would be out because of this problem. It seems that the team of doctors did not want to rush to give a verdict because the heart condition is very vital for a footballer.
What is clear, the absence of Aguero is a big loss for Barcelona. El Barca have to work harder to get out of a bad period after a 1-1 draw with Alaves and are stuck in ninth place in the LaLiga standings.
