Manchester City legend Sergio Aguero returned to playing football almost a year after he retired due to a heart condition.

The 34-year-old had to prematurely retire from the game after he was diagnosed with a heart problem just months after he signed for Barcelona.

In a video posted on Twitter, the petite forward showed he still has it, with his sharp goal scoring instincts at display.

Fans cheered as they watched the former Manchester City star, with others taking to social media to express their delight.

Sergio Aguero had an amazing football career especially in England with Manchester City, winning the Premier League multiple times.

However, he had to return to Spain two seasons ago, where he signed for Barcelona, but his career with the Catalans was short-lived.

He previously played for Atletico Madrid in Spain.

Sergio Aguero celebrates 34th birthday in style in Miami

Earlier, Sports Brief reported that Manchester City legend Sergio Aguero celebrated his 34th birthday in style as he soaked up festivities in the hype city of Miami, US.

Aguero was in December 2021 forced to quit football quite prematurely after he was diagnosed with a heart condition.

Since then, the former Manchester City striker has kept his fans on the loop on the goings-on in his life, and he is still a keen follower of football.
