Premier League - Aguero rejects Chelsea interest

Reuters - Thu, 05 Nov 12:50:00 2009

Atletico Madrid striker Sergio Aguero is flattered by the interest Chelsea have shown in him but said he is happy to stay in the Spanish capital for the time being.

2009-10 Champions League Atletico Madrid - 0

The 21-year-old Argentina international scored two superb goals in Tuesday's 2-2 Champions League draw with the Londoners and Atletico reportedly turned down a Chelsea offer of around £31 million in the close season.

"I know that people were saying they (Chelsea) wanted me during the summer and that there were several teams tracking me but nothing ever came to me and I am happy at Atletico," Aguero said in AS.

"It's nice that people say I could play in a team like Chelsea, one of the best in the world," he added.

"I like it (Chelsea's interest) and it makes me happy but I am the same person as ever and I think the same as before."

Aguero, nicknamed "Kun" after a Japanese cartoon character with a similar hairstyle, said he was focused on Saturday's match against city rivals Real Madrid as Atletico seek to haul themselves out of the relegation zone.

They are in 18th place out of 20 with just one win in nine matches and replaced coach Abel Resino with Quique Sanchez Flores on October 3.

Chelsea are waiting to hear the result of their appeal against FIFA's transfer ban and if it's lifted or frozen they could make another move for Aguero either in the January transfer window or next summer.

"I don't really want to think about any other team. I want to fight with Atletico to the death," Aguero, who joined the club as an 18-year-old, told AS.

"I almost feel like I was born here. It's a club that has given me a lot, pleasure as well as pain, but it's a place I feel very happy."

  1. Shiity Premiership club from London,owned by a­ russian­ mafia boss - Roman Abramovich - which aplauds­ every­ their goal like a f*ckin´ @#$%*ot and who shows­ as much­ emotion as a dead fish.

  10. Comment no 34. the comment about "Wannabes" I­ think that for most of your points everyone would like­ to be a "wannabe" i think that every team­ would want a new ground. everyteam would want to be in­ the champions League. everyteam would want to challenge­ for as many trophys as they could. So how about you­ think before you TRY to type a proper comment that­ actually makes sense.

    … and you’ve got a few Leagues, a couple of­ League and FA Cups to show for it. I was looking into­ your transfers to do a list the same as matneems­ liverpool list ( top boy ) but it’s not an argument I­ ‘d want to get into, well I would but … and you’ve­ bought your success now but I see that over the past 3­ or 4 years the pot has gone a bit dry. It looks as­ though Abroomowitch ( c’mon it’s near Halloween ) is­ getting bored with his plaything. But you were­ beginning to do alright even before he arrived on the­ scene. Could never underatand why you got rid of­ Raneiri (?) or Grant but the new boy’s good. I’ve seen­ the relegation of Man Utd and the good times of­ Liverpool but our success at the moment doesn’t match­ the feeling of what Liverpool’s success felt like.­ Maybe when it does feel the same then I’ll be contented­ and maybe it’ll be Chelsea’s turn then. I hope Alex­ feels the same. We’re not quite there yet but we’re­ getting close. At the moment even if you win another 10­ Premierships you’re still W.A.N.N.A.B.E.E.S!!! and deep­ down you know it.

  17. Lemontreesid # 49 – “who just happen to be regarded as­ one of the best­ in the world by a lot of knowledgable­ people! and they­ havent got anybody banned from europe­ yet !or worse??? “

    That’s only because you were never­ in Europe long enough you idiot. There were never 41,00­ fans when I was there. Where have all the others come­ from? They wouldn’t be the so called glory hunters­ would they? That’s what’s happens when you become­ successfu. It comes with the territory. Get used to it.­ IxQuick Chelsea Thugs and you’ll see there was a mini­ riot after your game with us in 2007, after Spurs in­ 2007 etc, etc, etc. I’ve had to walk from the home end­ at Chelsea to the MU end all the way up the side of the­ pitch getting spat at and things thrown at you many a­ time. Walking out of the Chelsea fans wasn’t much fun­ either back in the day when you had terraces and no­ roof. Methinks you don’t know what you’re talking­ about, eh?
