Aguero in contention for Capital One Cup final return

Sergio Aguero is in the frame to play for Manchester City in Sunday's Capital One Cup final at Wembley. City's top scorer has missed the past month with a hamstring injury, sustained in a 5-1 win at Tottenham.

Aguero, who has scored 26 goals in all competitions this season, has already had a spell on the sidelines after injuring his calf in December.

City team-mate Samir Nasri said: "It is going to be a big boost for the team [having Aguero back], but you cannot disrespect Alvaro Negredo and Edin Dzeko.

"They have done a great job too. It will be good when another striker comes, and with Stevan Jovetic and them we can rotate and be more fresh."
