Aguero: 'I do not want to leave City'

Manchester City striker Sergio Aguero insists that he wants to remain with the club and see out his current contract.

Manchester City striker Sergio Aguero has insisted that he has no plans to leave the club in the near future and is keen to see out his current contract.

Since Pep Guardiola took over at the Etihad in summer 2016, Aguero's future has repeatedly come in for question - with media reports suggesting that the manager was not convinced that he is the correct long-term frontman for the club.

However after a stunning first half of the season, which has seen the 29-year-old score 16 goals for the Citizens and become the club's all-time leading goalscorer, Aguero is said to have finally won over Guardiola and will become a key part of future plans.

"I have until 2020 [on my contract], I think," Aguero told reporters after last night's 3-1 win over Watford. "The truth is that I hope to see out my contract and I'll try to do my best from here until the end of the season, and after that we will see what happens with me.

"For me, yes [I want to stay]. Obviously my plan is not to change clubs.

"The truth is I'm very happy here but, as always, as I said before, the club has the last word. They're the only ones who decide because obviously the club is the one who makes the decisions, they are the ones who say you have to go or have to stay, so I'll respect whatever they tell me."

City are currently 15 points clear at the top of the table and remain unbeaten in the Premier League after 22 matchdays.
