Sergio Aguero (continued)

[skybluelyon]

I'm sure you can read up on the clubs history, we've done laughing stock enough times, this isn't it, this is wait and be patient, but its something that most youngsters can't handle.

Oh by the way personal abuse to a mod isn't the greatest move.....

a mod i'm scarred not, and if this goes tits up we will look the laughing stock of europe not just england. so stick your shit. if i want to post how we'll look i will ok

You may not be scarred, but are you scared?

lol what a stupid error cheers for pointing it out

If anyone is interested the SSN cameraman outside the hotel has tweeted.

Aguero still in hotel. His interpreter left the hotel in a silver City box van. Don't know his destination?

I feel like a stalker.

Link to that guys twitter?

What's delaying Sergio signing?

Been watching SSN all afternoon and becoming increasingly nervous that there are problems,anyone any ideas as to what they could be?

Laughing stock was losing 4-1 to Lincoln City, home and away to Wycombe......

Tick boxes

Length of contract
Wages
Fee and payment
Contract clauses


Unless someone has missed the page with the last item this seems to be taking an age for whatever reasons. Can´t think for one moment the PR team had this in mind
Oh well , wait and see

Can't be sold to real. I typed that in 3.5 seconds it won't take 24 hours to pencil it in!

pretty big ask of aguero to write in paper that hell never sign for real madrid,takes some commitment that

Not sure that such a clause would even be legal, to be honest

My thoughts exactly. Restraint of trade and all that.

Kids speculating. :( I hope when I come back there's something less ridiculous to talk about.

 

[andyblue87]

[lee-mcfc]

delay in aguero down to atletico - they want a clause inserting saying aguero can never be sold to real...

The only person who might be against this is Aguero himself, so unless he is, I don't see why this would be a hold up. I think we'd gladly insert this clause in order to stop one of the few teams who could possibly pry him away from bidding.

Spot on, that was my first impression as well. City would love to put this in his contract, the only hold up would be Aguero, meaning he has plans to one day move to Real.

Speculation of course but fascinating.

I think City would love to have a clause where he can't join them for the first 2 years, but not sure about a clause where he can NEVER join them. Due to FFP, clubs have to buy players when they are young, develop them, and then sell them on for a profit. 4/5 years down the line, Real Madrid are one of the few clubs that can enable us to make a profit on Aguero. So i don't think City would like to rule them out completely. I don't think Aguero would want to rule out playing for them further down the line either.

So if this is the genuine reason for the delay (it's come from fbloke, so i doubt it's true), then i guess it boils down to whether Atletico will accept a compromise of no Aguero sale to Real Madrid during the first 2 years, or something like that.
