Agüero reveals interest in move to Chelsea

Unlike Elvis Costello, it appears that long-term Chelsea target Sergio Aguero does want to go to Chelsea. The media have reported some rather telling quotes from the Argentinean striker today.

. 

"I look at players like Drogba and Lampard and they have been – and still are – the best players in their positions in the world. I could really learn from players like that.

"Chelsea are a great club. They have become one of the most feared in Europe over recent years. London would be a really amazing city to live in as well – myself and my wife could be really happy there.

 

Interestingly, the media also claim that we were just hours away from clinching a deal with Atletico Madrid last summer for what would have been a British record £45m – only for his club to raise the asking price at the last moment. 

Man Utd and Inter are also claimed to be interested – along with the most recent nouveau riche Man City.  Nevertheless, Aguero doesn’t seem so keen on the Manchester club: 

"Carlos Tevez is doing really well at Manchester City but for me it is about joining a club who are ready to challenge for honours. City are not ready yet." 

Hmmm…well let’s hope they don’t get that 4^th place spot then!  Come on you Spu……! Whoops!  Wash my mouth out! 

So who would be offloaded then?  Kalou?  Inconsistent but has youth on his side…or Anelka?  Unquestionable ability….but how much is he on?  And what’s he asking for his new contract?
