Dzeko To Stand In For Absent Aguero

Eden Dzeko is ready to prove his worth following the injury of Manchester City’s teammate, Sergio Aguero.

Aguero who is City’s top scorer this season with 19 goals in all competitions. The Argentinian has been ruled out for at least a month after damaging his calf in last weekend’s 6-3 thrashing of Arsenal.

Aguero’s injury may prove to be fortune for Dzeko who scored a brace in Tuesday’s Capital One Cup win over Leicester City.

“Sergio being out is very bad for the team because he has had an amazing season so far,”

“He has been scoring a lot of goals and he is obviously a very important player for us.

“But that’s life. Now we have to try to play games without him, and try to keep winning. I am a striker that has scored goals all my life and I love to do it.

“When I get a chance I try to do my best.” Dzeko told Daily Mirror
