Manchester City's 5-0 thrashing of Burnley on June 22, 2020, was a dominant display of football, but it came at a cost for the Argentine striker Sergio Aguero.

Guardiola's men were in top form, with Riyad Mahrez and Phil Foden each scoring a brace, and David Silva also getting on the scoresheet.

However, Aguero's evening was cut short when he was substituted in the 45th minute after being tackled by Burnley captain Ben Mee.

Guardiola expressed concern about Aguero's injury, stating that it 'doesn't look good' for the rest of the season.

According to the Manchester City boss, Aguero has been struggling with a knee problem since returning from lockdown and now faces a potentially extended period on the sidelines.

Guardiola confirmed that Aguero will undergo a series of tests on Tuesday, but the manager's words were laced with concern, suggesting that the 32-year-old may be out of action for an extended period.
