​Sergio Aguero flies to Portugal for Man City quarter-final

Manchester City star Sergio Aguero is flying with his teammates for the UEFA Champions League mini tournament in Portugal.

The Citizens are playing a quarter final against Lyon, which will be a one-off game.

If they progress, they will also have a one legged semi-final before the showpiece final.

Aguero is recovering from a knee injury and hopes he can play at some point in the competition.

The 32-year-old may not be fit for the quarter final, but the Daily Mail reports he is working hard to be fit for the semi or the final.

City will have Gabriel Jesus up front in Aguero's absence, and it was his key contribution that saw them progress past Real Madrid in the round of 16.
