Report: Manchester City star tipped to be one step away from joining Juventus

Italian Champions Juventus have been touted to be likely destinations for Manchester City Legend Sergio Aguero.

The Argentina international, who joined City from Atletico Maldrid in 2011 is the club’s all-time leading scorer with 256 goals.

Since his arrival at the Etihad, injuries have always been facet of Agüero’s game those at the club have had to live with. Yet, in recent years these fitness woes have developed beyond a minor inconvenience.

Pep Guardiola has even warned that the 32-year-old Argentina international future at the club is not guaranteed, as injuries rob more and more of the Argentine’s time on the pitch.

As the injuries mount and his importance gradually heads in the opposite direction, the time for City to let him go does feel right. Aguero is out of contract at the end of the season and can speak to overseas clubs from January.

According to Calciomercato, the possibility of him making the move to Turin at the expiry of his current deal is so positive that betting analysts have made the odds in Juve’s favour.

For years Juventus have been the masters of the free agent market where they bring in quality players without a transfer fee, so it sounds like they are in line to keep that going next summer as Sergio Aguero will be free to leave at the end of this season.

The Bianconeri has had to rely on Alvaro Morata and Cristiano Ronaldo for much of their goals this season, adding Aguero to that list will surely mean adding more goals to their team.
