Aguero is teaching kids how to count in Spanish. His lessons became available on a day kids in Britain would have usually returned to school after the Easter holidays.

Aguero says it’s a tough time for children at the moment, and also for parents trying to keep them focused on their education from home.

Aguero hasn’t played a competitive match since March 8 because football is shut down in England and across most of the world during the outbreak.
