Ag?ero has been subjected to a diagnostic and therapeutic process by Dr. Josep Brugada. He is unavailable for selection and during the next three months the effectiveness of treatment will be evaluated in order to determine his recovery process.
The Argentine was taken to hospital for cardiological evaluation on Saturday following the Barca v Alav?s game in which the Barca striker felt unwell in the first half and was replaced before halftime by Philippe Coutinho.
If Aguero does confirm his retirement from the game, it will mean he has made just five appearances for Barca after joining on a free transfer from Manchester City over the summer.
