Manchester City striker Sergio Aguero could be sidelined for this Sunday's Premier League encounter against Tottenham Hotspur.

The Argentina international was taken off in the second half of City's slender 1-0 win over Wigan Athletic last night with a hamstring complaint.

"He has got a problem, but it was a slight problem," London 24 quotes assistant manager David Platt as saying.

"It was more of a precaution than anything else. He felt his hamstring tighten up. Just the sheer proximity of the game on Sunday would say he is a doubt."

City are now 13 points adrift of Manchester United following the Red Devils' 2-2 draw with West Ham United.
