Sergio Aguero, former Manchester City striker, recently retired at the Camp Nou after being transferred and only playing a couple of warm up friendlies for La Blaugrana.
The reason behind his retirement was his absurd heart condition that resulted in him being substituted off early in one of his first La Liga matches back in Spain. The Argentinian followed up with doctors and finally it was determined that if he continued to play the issue could become a serious one.
Now that he’s retired, we wonder how much football he actually watch.
“Today I want to play, but I’m scared. I trained all my life to the maximum and in big competitions. I don’t watch football or the news, I don’t care what’s going on.
“I concentrate on what I like the most, like friends. Returning to play comes into my head from time to time but I know it’s something I can’t do. They told me I was lucky because I could easily have had a heart attack. Now it is time to relax. I’m happy with what I’m doing.
“We’re still talking about what role I’ll have. [Argentine FA president Claudio Tapia] has always been nice to me and asked me to come.
“We’re going to chat a little more to see if I’ll go to the World Cup draw. I’ll be there with the guys, I get along very well with them. I’ll be there with them and helping them with tense situations.”
