Barcelona signing Aguero spends fortune on presents for Man City staff

Sergio Aguero shelled out for gifts for Manchester City's staff after leaving for Barcelona.

The Athletic reports the Argentine made sure to thank all of the people who helped him during his decade at the club, which saw him win 15 trophies including five Premier League titles.

According to The Athletic, the striker gave every member of City's staff a raffle ticket for his £40,000 Range Rover and bought each of them either a Hublot or Tag Heuer watch which had the words 'Gracias! Kun Aguero' engraved.

A member of City's kit team won the luxury car while each watch is thought to have cost at least £1,000 with the Tag Heuer Formula 1 model priced between £1,200 and £1,650.

The report states that the 32-year-old contributed a significant amount to a pot of money which the squad hand over to support staff twice a year.
