He now faces a period of self-isolation in which he will not be part of Manchester City's training programme or match-day squads.
Aguero has been kept off the pitch by a series of injuries this season, and Manchester City have often played without a recognised striker with Gabriel Jesus also spending spells on the sidelines.
