Reports coming out of Spain are linking Manchester United with a multi-million pound bid for Sergio Aguero after the player’s agent spoke of an English approach for the forward.
Agent Jose Segui has been quoted saying that a ‘leading English team’ have asked him to approach Atletico Madrid, and Segui ruled out Chelsea.
At 20 years of age, Aguero is already the star of the Atletico XI, and would easily command a transfer fee of around £30 million.
Liverpool wanted the Argentina international before he joined Atleti, and Rafa Benitez could use Xabi Alonso as part of a deal to bring Aguero to Anfield.
Arsene Wenger meanwhile would also have the funds if he sold Emmanuel Adebayor, but the Frenchman is notoriously thrifty in the transfer market.
The most obvious move would be United, where Aguero would act as a replacement for wantaway attacker Cristiano Ronaldo.
Segui is reported as saying on Saturday: “I have had interest from a leading English team and they have asked me to approach Atletico with a bid.
“I cannot say more until I have spoken to the club about the offer.
“All I can tell you is that it is one of the best teams in Europe and it's not Chelsea.”
Obviously it doesnt entirely link us with him but it could be us the agent is on about? And if so...
Rafa mentioned in a recent interview he's trying to get 2 players signed very soon... could he be one of them?
Or is he just a target for Rafa, because he did mention he wanted a replacement for crouch, and with villa out of the question, and some doubts over Keane due to Berbatov's possible move to the mancs, he could be the one rafas may want instead?
