LONDON, April 17 (Xinhua) -- Manchester City striker Sergio Aguero will miss the rest of the Premier League season after undergoing keyhole surgery on his left knee.

The 29-year-old Argentine, who has scored 30 goals this season, has been plagued with the injury for the past five weeks and missed Saturday's 3-1 win at Tottenham.

"Recovering from an arthroscopy on my knee. Fully motivated to get back soon to the field," Aguero tweeted.

Aguero, who played his last game as a late substitute in City's loss to Liverpool in the Champions League quarterfinal, will be fit for Argentina's World Cup campaign.
