Aguero had been attending a Maluma concert in Holland and was on his way to the airport when the collision occurred.

The City ace reportedly told Radio Metro de Argentina: "The taxi driver did not see the curve and skid. And when he skidded, we hit the pole.

"I broke my rib, now I'm resting. It hurts me badly. I'll be discharged in a little while."

Meanwhile, Aguero's club boss Pep Guardiola has had his say on the star's injury.

In his Friday press conference, he said: "Sergio is still in Amsterdam he’s coming back. I don’t know exactly what he had.

"Of course it was an accident but fortunately he comes back and can recover as soon as poss. It was a day off.

"It was a day off, not a problem. I’ve not spoken to him, I was busy preparing. I’ll speak this afternoon with him.

"But I know he’s OK and we hope he will recover as soon as possible.

"He cannot play tomorrow. He cannot go with Argentina. I don’t know until he sees the doctor.

"First impression is that he’s broken a rib but how many days he’ll be out, I don’t know."
