REAL MADRID last night upped the stakes in their £45m bid to land Sergio Aguero from Manchester City.


Starsport revealed last week how City face a losing battle to keep hold of star striker Aguero in the face of strong interest from the Spanish giants.

Aguero is becoming disillusioned with life in Manchester after the break-up of his marriage.

Barcelona have also entered the race to sign the Argentina striker.

That has spooked Real – who have decided to offer City their choice of either Karim Benzema or Gonzalo Higuain as a sweetener.

Real president Florentino Perez knows he could lose Cristiano Ronaldo this summer and wants a major transfer to help him re-elected get year.

Perez is also trying to sign Gareth Bale from Spurs and has now taken charge of all the club’s transfer negotiations.

Real missed out on Aguero when he joined City for £38m because Atletico Madrid refused to sell to their rivals.

But they have maintained their interest and a return to Madrid with Real could appeal to Aguero, who would be closer to his son Ben.

Barcelona’s top priority is to keep hold of a rejuvenated David Villa, who has been offered a new deal.

Aguero is a fall-back option
 
They've run the "Aguero unhappy in Manchester" angle before and he's always come out and denied it. This year alone he said he is so happy in Manchester and wants to stay here for years. If he isn't lying he is one of the last players we should sell. We want to go to a more Barcelona style, letting Aguero go wouldn't help in that cause, he is one of the most skillful strikers in the world and we haven't seen the best of him yet. We'll end up having sold all four strikers if Tevez (gone if we find a buyer, gone the next summer if not), Dzeko (all but gone), and Aguero are sold which is absolute nonsensical madness for a club wanting to be one of the world's elite. Aguero should be the 'untouchable'. If we end up selling members of our team's spine the whole gelling process is going to be reset and next season we'll end up with a team getting to know each other again at the expense of results.
 
I'd sell Aguero only if Ronaldo is sweetener :)

They can put Higuain and Benzema where sun doesn't shine.

I absolutely agree that if players like Aguero are sold than having some yo-yo success is all that City can expect so hopefully that won't be considered. If best players can't be kept than something went terribly wrong out there.

He'll only go if we're willing to sell and I don't think we will.

I wouldn't sell aguero if we got ronaldo in return, he's younger and is only gonna get better...maybe I'm disillusioned but the only way he gets some is unless he forces a transfer through and everything that we as fans see is that he's happy and wants to be here

Buckle up for a summer full of rumours but im confident all of our spine will be here when Sep 1st rolls around
 
I love you Kun but I'd sell you for Ronaldo.

Kun is young, great and all that but it's Ronaldo who is absolute world star, more than Kun, one that make headlines and kids to become club fans, same kids that one day might be world star players and yearn to play for City, the club of their childhood so you don't get scared at each headline about your player wanted from his first love.

Kun can bring that too of course but on lower level and to be honest, I don't think he'll be at City at Ronaldo's age.

I find that thing absolutely most important thing in developing City as world's elite club. Until City comes to stage where 17-18 years players are ones who dreamed playing for City when they were kids, we're always going to shit ourselves when Barcelona or Madrid want our players and will lose many of them in signing process.

That thing is the edge Madrid, Barcelona and United mostly, and few other big clubs on smaller level have over City today and sooner that gap is closed sooner will everything be better and more stable.

And there's only Messi who can compete with Ronaldo as being main man for that goal as well as for short term results.

But this is all hypothetical and fantasy,, of course, so I hope City will do anything to keep Aguero, Silva and similar players. It would be disaster if we would fail to keep players of such big profile after 2-3 years. It would be very bad thing for club's reputation.
 
if they want aguero, we'll do a deal...

higuin, benzema, di maria and keidhra, plus that varane.

cheers.
 
Prior to this season I went through a phase of warming to Ronaldo. Not a fucking chance now, I realised why I used to despise him when he came back to play against us this season, plus his love for the Red Scum.

People will say, "But if he signs for us, he'll play for us", nah, I doubt he'd even consider joining us. Even in the modern age where footballers feel very little for their clubs, I do at least appreciate some level of affection and Ronaldo would think of playing for City like doing a chore, knowing there'd be reward at the end.
 
Ladies and gentleman... it's back! The Aguero to leave rumour... have to admit I'm a little more worried this time than the usual generic AGUERO TO REAL! tenuous bollox.

Aguero battle set to welcome Pellegrini: Incoming City boss could lose wantaway star striker
By Ian Ladyman
PUBLISHED: 22:30, 14 May 2013 | UPDATED: 22:30, 14 May 2013


Incoming Manchester City manager Manuel Pellegrini’s first job would be to persuade Sergio Aguero to stay at the club.

City are in the middle of negotiations with Pellegrini’s club Malaga and hope to have the 59-year-old Chilean at the Etihad Stadium within two weeks.

However, Sportsmail understands that Pellegrini would walk straight into a battle to keep Aguero after the club’s top goalscorer this season indicated to team-mates that he is ready to consider offers elsewhere.

Part of the 24-year-old striker’s unhappiness in recent weeks has stemmed from discord in the City dressing room. Officials at the club hope this may ease now that there is about to be a change of manager.

However, Aguero has been unhappy since the breakdown of his marriage to wife Giannina and that has contributed to his doubts about the future.

Aguero, who scored against Reading on Tuesday, is a popular figure at City, where staff are doing all they can to make life comfortable for the man who scored the goal that clinched the league title last May.

City will hope that the situation can be resolved before Aguero is tempted by interest from other clubs.

David Platt, former manager Roberto Mancini’s right-hand man, on Tuesday followed the Italian out of the club.

A City statement said: ‘With regret we announce that David Platt has left his role as assistant manager. David was offered the opportunity to continue his work with us but has declined the invitation.

‘David has made a significant contribution to the club’s success since joining in 2010 and we wish him well with his career wherever that now takes him.’

Meanwhile, Mancini is a target for French clubs Paris Saint-Germain and Monaco, who are also interested in City strikers Carlos Tevez and Edin Dzeko.
