Argentina head into the resumption of the South American World Cup Qualifiers for Qatar 2022 with plenty of hope. Only a few months ago, they ended a long drought by winning the 2021 Copa America and now have their sights set on the next World Cup. Unfortunately, Sergio Kun Aguero won’t be in the squad this time.

Aguero left Manchester City after a successful ten-year spell in which he left an indelible mark. He hasn’t, however, ended his tenure in the best possible way and now has to keep on waiting to bounce back.
