Sergio Aguero Open To Man City Exit

El Kun spent six years in Independiente’s youth system before playing an additional three years for the senior side until his switch to Atletico Madrid in 2008.

Manchester City may have made a flying start to the campaign in a bid to reclaim the Premier League, but that’s not enough to persuade star striker Sergio Aguero to commit his future to the club as he has suggested he is open to leaving at the expiration of his current deal.

According to Aguero, he’s always wanted a return to his boyhood club Independiente where he first burst to the limelight.

El Kun spent six years in Independiente’s youth system before playing an additional three years for the senior side until his switch to Atletico Madrid in 2008.

The 29-year-old striker, who recently became City’s all-time leading scorer after netting against Napoli in the Champions League, runs out of contract at the Etihad in 2019 and has said he still dreams of returning to his former side, Goal writes.

“It came out that Milan and Real Madrid wanted me and – I don’t know where I read it – but they said: ‘They just spoiled Independiente’s dream’,” Sergio Aguero told reporters while on international duty.

“But the idea was always to go back to Independiente when my contract with City runs out in 2019.

“I have an option to extend one more year with City where it’s the priority but it’s always an option.

“The idea is to go back. Now, they are doing very well and hopefully they can win the cup, but it’s not easy.”

Aguero remains crucial to Pep Guardiola’s side and is currently the Premier League’s joint-top goalscorer with eight goals, having been restricted to eight games after breaking a rib in a car accident in Amsterdam.

The Argentine – City’s undisputed first choice striker for years – has had to share some attacking duties with Brazilian upstart Gabriel Jesus this season.
