Several national newspapers have today been sharing a video of Manchester City striker Sergio Aguero smoking a shisha pipe with 18-year-old model, Lola Magnin.
The clip of the pair smoking the pipe was taken from Lola Magnin’s Instagram account but has since been deleted by the model.
The above mentioned newspapers were reporting that Sergio Aguero could face retrospective for smoking said pipe.
However Sky Sports News have reported that Manchester City are aware of the video and are not particularly concerned about it, thus it is unlikely Aguero will face any action.

This is hardly surprising given that smoking a shisha pipe is not illegal in the United Kingdom.
Instead, the papers are likely picking up this story because Sergio Aguero failed to score in Manchester City’s last game vs Wolves.
Manchester City started the 2018/19 season how they finished the last.
City took on Arsenal in their opening game and picked up a dominant 2-0 victory.
They then smashed Huddersfield Town 6-1.
However, when City faced Wolves this past weekend, the newly promoted side proved much harder to break down.
Wolves took the lead in the 57th minute through Willy Boly before Aymeric Laporte drew City level.
But the game would finish 1-1 and Sergio Aguero, City’s star striker would fail to get on the score sheet.
As a result, this may be why some newspapers are bringing up Aguero’s shisha smoking session.
Pep Guardiola has also had hissayon City’s draw with Wolves, however, Pep did not mention Aguero or his display that day.
“The Premier League will decide when VAR will be here, it’s none of my business.
“We knew how good Wolves were last season and that they are strong with the players they have so we knew this would be a hard game already.
“Every game we play, we learn more and today is no different.”
