Manchester City in advanced talks with Atletico Madrid forward Sergio Aguero
It is being reported that Manchester City are currently in advanced talks with Atletico Madrid forward and Argentinean goal scoring machine, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Sergio-c33030 Aguero.
According to a number of sources, the two clubs have reached a mutual agreement over a forty five million price and the player is expected to sign for City on a five year contract, later on this week.
At the moment, Aguero is still in Buenos Aires, where he participated in the Copa http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/England-c749, instead of jetting back to Atletico.
Aguero showed strong signs of his potential move, when he failed to show up for Atletico Madrid’s training session earlier this week. Due to the player shunting out his club, it felt like he had already made up his mind regarding his future and it wasn’t
in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Spain-c3011 any longer.
City manager, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Mancini-c23323 also went on to confirm that talks with Aguero were progressing rather well and that he hoped for the forward t sign sooner rather than later.
Aguero was previously linked with a move to Juventus and Real Madrid, but interest from both of those teams died out in the player and since then, City have emerged as the firm favourites to secure the forwards services.
Manchester City initially went on to ponder over making a move for Aguero, when current City goal scoring machine, Carlos Tevez expressed his desire to part ways with the team. Nonetheless, following a bid from http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Corinthians-c38855 and City turning down the Brazilian
club, Tevez appears to be on the verge of spending another season with City.
As a result, it is interesting to see City still pursue Tevez. The team currently has ample strikers in their squad and with Edin Dzeko and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Carlos-c8346 Tevez being the cream of the crop.
Despite that fact, it seems like Mancini is adamant on trying to make his squad even better than it already is. The manager has stated that he wishes to fight for top honours this coming season and as a result, he is looking to fine tune the roster at the
club.
Should Aguero come into the squad, he would provide a whole new dimension to the squad in the offensive department.
Aguero has blistering pace, quick feet, the ability to beat a number of players in a row and he can shoot from almost anywhere.
It is still unclear as to what formation Mancini would resort to using once Aguero joins the team, but what can be said assuredly, is that the manager has thought out how to utilize Aguero rather tactfully.
