Manchester City haven't learned the exact timetable of Sergio Aguero's injury yet, but they know that he won't be available to face AS Roma in the UEFA Champions League on Wednesday.

Aguero suffered a knee injury in his team's win over Everton and had to be substituted early. He had tears in his eyes, leading some to believe his injury was very serious, but the club has yet to determine whether or not he needs surgery. The Mirror is reporting that Aguero is expected to be out for a month with a knee ligament injury, though a final scan could change that prognosis.
“It’s a big problem. It is very difficult when you have trouble with your ligament to recover in three days,” said City boss Manuel Pellegrini, admitting that it was next to impossible for Aguero to play against Roma.
Aguero has been City's best player this season, and beating Roma without him will be a tough task. David Silva and Stevan Jovetic have also missed time recently, and the pair of them will be fighting to get fit for the Roma match, with neither confirmed as in or out yet.
