Sergio Aguero will be assessed on Sunday after choosing to come off 'as a precaution' in Manchester City's 2-0 win at Fulham.

Having scored and set up another at Craven Cottage, Aguero was replaced by Gabriel Jesus on 57 minutes, before a chat with manager Pep Guardiola on the sidelines.

Guardiola, speaking after the game, said the Argentine was not necessarily injured, but would nonetheless be assessed on Sunday ahead of a busy schedule of fixtures.
