He also posted a photo of himself back in Manchester City kit, saying that while the injury hurts, he was saved from something far more serious because he was wearing a seat belt.
Aguero wrote: ‘I’m home in Manchester after an exam by club Drs. It’s a broken rib. Hurts, but I’m fine, fully focused on recovery. Thank you all!
‘I’d like to thank the staff of the VU University Medical Amsterdam for their care and support. Hats off to all their team.
‘The taxi I was riding made a wrong turn and crashed against a pole. It was a very heavy slam but seatbelts prevented it from being worse.’
Aguero, who was in Holland to attend a concert of Colombian singer-songwriter Maluma, was riding in a taxi back to the airport when the vehicle crashed into a pole.
