Jimboola69 Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 <from todays Sun> ARGENTINA ace Sergio Aguero could be ready to head to England. An unnamed Premier League club — not Chelsea — has made a huge bid for the Atletico Madrid forward. Aguero, 20, is one of Europe’s hottest properties and has a whopping buy-out clause of £44million. He netted 20 goals in 37 league games last season to pick up Spain’s player-of-the-year award. His agent Jose Segui said: “I’ve received an offer from a big English club and they’ve asked me to pass that offer on to Atletico Madrid. “I can’t say anything more until I’ve spoken to the club about this definite offer. "I can only say that it’s one of the best clubs in Europe and it’s not Chelsea.†---------------------- Dammit this kid is mustard...the absolute dogs danglies. We SHOULD be in for him.

WoodmanBlue Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 lets hope this is just a rumour, would hate to see him go to someone like United, the kid is f*cking quality! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blizeH Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 Could be Liverpool also; bear in mind United are already spending a lot on Berbatov Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheWestwayWonder Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 Well, if the crap from the rags is to be believed, we already tabled that 44 and he wasnt game. Cant do anything in that case. I would venture to say he wont be coming to England any time soon. Outside of us, nobody else can match that kind of bid unless they did some back pating with Athletico. But I honestly cant see Liverpool or Arsenal bidding over 20 million for anyone in the near future, and the Mancs seem to want Berbatov, who would be a dangerous addition Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gustyheadhunter Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 i printed a similar thing to this the other night and to hear more about again today is really startin to concern me. this wee man is a fantastic player and not the sort of guy who should be allowed to join united without the likes of ourselves makin an offer. i know at the moment its paper talk but still you never know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mad_mac Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 Fergie to replace Ronaldo with Aguero? Wouldn't suprise me. I'd hate it though, he is a great talent. Imagine him and Robinho on the wings, Deco in the middle. Cole and Kalou as subs...Drogs, or whomever up front. That would be amazing Scott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barak81 Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 i think aguero would need to play in a 4-4-2, he's not a winger, and he get isolated out there where players could kick away at him, he's probably best played behind the frount man thus my hope the united thing is bollox. I hate labeling players the next anything because i like to think of them as the what they are, so im going to pick my words carfully. Aguero could be the man that puts that little bit of x factor back in to things, thw thing we havent had since zola left, what we thought we might be getting with mutu had it not gone so terribly wrong, what robben promised to be but got broke and what joe cole almost is but might never quite be!! some one who's worth the ticket cost all by him self!! This is to of my wish list for the summer!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueBosnian Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 Could be Liverpool also; bear in mind United are already spending a lot on Berbatov Doubt that... He did say "one of the best clubs in Europe..." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruh Buh Juh Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 I say we just put an offer in anyway :angry: We'll have nothing to lose 'cause we don't expect to get him! If he rejects it, then we'll be fine because we knew he didn't want to sign for us, but if he accepts, it's an added bonus! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JT26CFC Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 or we could just go for someone we know we'll sign? David Villa anybody?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimboola69 Posted July 18, 2008 Author Share Posted July 18, 2008 I wonder if he has a release fee? I think they all do in Spain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loz Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 I wonder if he has a release fee? I think they all do in Spain. I think the release clauses are only valid if it is another Spanish club doing the buying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g3.7 Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 I think the release clauses are only valid if it is another Spanish club doing the buying. not sure about that, but it's a legal thing, and in most cases is circumvented by being ridiculously high- it's extremely rare for a top players release clause to be met (last time was figo to madrid I think), and since then they have gone even higher. basically they are irrelevant.
