City striker Aguero fit to face Leicester

Nov 16, 2017 - 6:44 PM Manchester City striker Sergio Aguero has declared himself fit to face Leicester City in the Premier League after collapsing in the dressing room at half-time during Argentina's defeat to Nigeria this week.

City said Aguero, who scored in the first half against Nigeria, had been cleared to return to England as planned after hospital tests having suffered "a dizzy spell".

His side lost 4-2 in the friendly in Russia against their fellow World Cup 2018 qualifiers Nigeria.

The 29-year-old, who has scored eight league goals in as many appearances for City this season and recently became the club's all-time top scorer, said on Thursday that he was raring to go after being cleared by City's medical team.

"All the tests they run on me - just for caution - turn out well, so I'm set to go for Saturday's match. C'mon, City," Aguero tweeted

City have collected 31 points from 11 games and are unbeaten this season, while their hosts on Saturday, Leicester, are 12th in the table with 13 points.
