Atletico Madrid striker Aguero tweets: Happy to be Man City player

Atletico Madrid striker Sergio Aguero has tweeted he is "already a Manchester City player".

Aguero was in Manchester yesterday for talks at Etihad stadium.

Aguero flew in from Buenos Aires, via Heathrow, early in the morning and went straight to a private Manchester hospital to undergo his medical.

He then had a brief stop at City's stadium before deciding lunch was the next most important thing on the agenda and so disappeared for a few hours before returning to the ground in the early evening.

After holding discussions with City officials, the son-in-law of Argentina icon Diego Maradona happily signed autographs for the growing crowd of fans who had gathered to see their new hero.

"I'm already a City player. Happy to be in this club & this city," he wrote on Twitter afterwards.

"Thanks everyone for the welcome and reception."
