And Aguero now spends his time making content for fans on live streaming website Twitch.

However, AS claims comments from the ex-striker in a recent stream are now under investigation in Argentina.

Ex-Independiente forward Aguero watched his old side stumble to a 1-1 draw against rivals Racing Club last month.

The game was shrouded in controversy after some big calls from referee Yael Falcon Perez went against Independiente – including a penalty for Racing.

And this prompted Aguero to blast the official on Twitch – just over a month after suffering another heart attack scare live on air.

Speaking on a stream, Aguero allegedly said: “How can he, the referee, what the f**k is his name… Yael Falcon Perez.

“Listen to me, Yael Falcon, that name is a disaster. You can say [the penalty], ‘it starts outside and ends up inside’.

“But he goes on to say ‘where the first contact is made is where the foul is called’.

“The truth is that he’s ready to kick the s**t out of this fathead.”

According to AS, the Agency for the Prevention of Violence in Sport has now opened a case against Aguero.

Agency head Eduardo Aparicio said: “Comments made by the former soccer player, internationally recognised as a supporter of Independiente, Sergio Leonel Aguero, have come out in the media, in relation to the work carried out by the referee Yael Falcon Perez in the match in question, in which there was a disputed play that led to a penalty in favour of the visiting club.

“It is necessary to mention that his comments towards the referring authority – aggressive and demeaning – clearly contravene the current regulations on sports safety, and could be interpreted as instigating violence.

“[There have been] threats received by referee Yael Falcon Perez and his family, [and] flares launched at his mother’s home.”

Aguero and his representatives not responded to the allegations.
