Sergio Aguero believes he is in "fantastic" shape after undergoing knee surgery in the summer.

The prolific Manchester City striker missed the last month of last season's Premier League title-winning campaign to go under the knife.

The 30-year-old seems to have put fitness issues behind him by making a positive start to the new campaign, with a hat-trick against Huddersfield last month among five goals he has already scored.

"Honestly, I feel fantastic. Dr [Ramon] Cugat did amazing work with my knee and now I don't feel any sort of discomfort," he told the club's website.

"During the past few years, I felt pains at times and when last season came to an end, we decided it would be best to start treatment. And the results were very positive.
