Aguero was replaced in the first half of Argentina's 3-2 win over Nigeria. The striker felt some discomfort in his left thigh and a muscle injury was confirmed on Thursday, which will leave him out of the World Cup.
The news has been confirmed by AFA (Argentine Football Association) and has not been dealt with in the same way by all the local press.
Olé, the largest sports daily in Argentina, confirmed Agüero will not face Switzerland in the round of 16, but does not rule out his comeback if the national team advances to the final of the competition: "Agüero has an edema and exams will be required to determine whether he will be ruled out".
