Barcelona and Argentina striker Sergio Aguero on Wednesday announced his retirement from football at a tearful press conference, just over a month after the 33-year-old was diagnosed with a heart problem. Aguero was then diagnosed with a heart condition and forced to accept that he would not be able to play again. Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola and director of football Txiki Begiristain were also both in attendance at the press conference. “Sergio is quite simply the most ruthless striker in the history of the Premier League. “I will stay connected to football for sure but will try to enjoy life a bit more.”
