Argentine could make City switch, according to international manager

Diego Maradona believes Argentine ace Sergio Aguero would leave Atletico Madrid for either Manchester City or Chelsea if they made an offer for him. Aguero is one of the most sought-after players in Europe after impressing for club and country in the last year. Atletico Madrid are determined to keep hold of the prolific striker with all of Europe's top clubs credited with an interest in his services. Aguero, who is seeing Maradona's daughter, has insisted he is happy with life in the Spanish capital, but the Argentina boss has given suitors of the striker encouragement by claiming the 20-year-old would consider a move to England. "If Chelsea, City or Inter Milan come in with sufficient money then Atletico will take it - it is the law of football," Maradona told Marca. "If they can pay the right money then they can take Kun [Aguero]. "I don't particularly want Kun to leave Atletico but I always try to tell the truth and all those clubs must know what will happen if they come up with the cash."
