Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola confirms that Sergio Aguero's fitness will be assessed ahead of this weekend's derby clash with Manchester United.

Manchester City striker Sergio Aguero faces a late fitness test ahead of this weekend's Manchester derby.

Sky Blues manager Pep Guardiola revealed during his pre-match press conference that the Argentine may not be ready to return from the knee injury that has kept him sidelined since last month.

"I don't know right now, if he will play," the Spaniard told reporters when quizzed on Aguero's fitness. "We have training this afternoon and we'll see how his physical condition is."

City can wrap up the Premier League title in front of their home supporters if they defeat bitter rivals Manchester United in the fixture.

Should Aguero be rested for the game, he could make his comeback in the second leg of City's Champions League quarter-final clash with Liverpool next week.
