Aguero trains as Mendy sits out Man City session

Benjamin Mendy remains a doubt for Manchester City's Champions League Group F opener against Lyon on Wednesday but Sergio Aguero returned to training with his team-mates.

Mendy sat out Saturday's 3-0 Premier League win over Fulham due to a knee complaint and missed Tuesday's session at the City Football Academy.

Aguero was substituted shortly after setting up Raheem Sterling's goal early in the second half against Fulham with a sore ankle but "looked fit and raring to go in a session led by manager Pep Guardiola", according to a statement on City's official website.

Guardiola will serve a touchline ban when Lyon visit the Etihad Stadium after he was sent off during the second leg of last season's Champions League quarter-final loss to Liverpool.
