The Argentine moved to the Catalans after ten years at ManCity. Now he injured his calf.
FC Barcelona have to do without new acquisition Sergio Aguero for a long time. The Argentine international, who wanted to attack the Catalans again with his friend Lionel Messi, suffered an injury to the right calf muscles, the club announced. The 33-year-old will not be available to the club of ÖFB legionnaire Yusuf Demir for about ten weeks, the statement said.

Aguero joined the Catalans on a free transfer this summer after ten years at Manchester City. His last season with the “Citizens” was marked by injuries. His compatriot Messi, on the other hand, left the club after a new contract failed.
For Barca coach Ronald Koeman, the personnel situation in the attack is currently tense. The obvious options for Sunday's first league game against Real Sociedad are Martin Braithwaite, Antoine Griezmann and Memphis Depay. For Demir, who knew how to please in the friendly matches, the chances of being used – at least from the bench – are not bad.
