Rumour kitchen: Berbatov plus £18m for Sergio Aguero?

Another day, another international rising superstar rumour. This time the rumour kitchen brings us the news of a tabbed offer for the services of Sergio Aguero. SAF is said to have offered £18m PLUS Berbatov to secure the Spanish 21 year old international, who is understood to have a £50m buy-out clause. So far none of these Spanish rumours have been confirmed and to me it seems very doubtful that SAF would sacrifice the mainly by himself highly hyped Bulgarian international.

So far Atletico Madrid have always maintained that Aguero not for sale is⁽¹⁾ so it seems unlikely that a cash plus player deal could be sufficient, especially considered the difference in age between Aguero and Berbatov.

On that note though, I do think that Berba would be a lot more efficient in the Primera Division than he has been for us so far. The more open game in Spain definitely suits his game better than pushing the opponent against the wall and hope to find that small hole and score like we love to do at ManUtd.

Do we want Aguero? Heck yes! He would give every defense a run for their money and soon EPL fans would have forgotten about freckle boy Torres! I would love to see Sergio Aguero be part of our squad but I don’t see it happen.

Unless the buy-out clause is met and triggered [↩]

The silly season getting sillier by the minute. SAF to offload one of his personal favorite players for Aguero? Dream on. That kid is an overhyped, WAY overpriced, weaker version of Tevez who let’s not forget was completely out done by one of our most notorious, and now aging, flops of all time Diego Forlan last season. And even if the universe was to turn upsid down and we’d actually consider paying the stupid amount of money for this guy his loud mouthed legend of a father in law has way too much hold over the kid, his opinion of united being soured after the Tevez affair. Find some more at least semi plausible rumors to blog about please.
