Chelsea, Tottenham encouraged to try again for Atletico Madrid star Aguero

The agent of Atletico Madrid striker Sergio Aguero has hinted at a Premier League move. The Mirror says Chelsea recoiled at the Argentine striker's £200,000 wage demands last year and Spurs had a January deadline day bid for the South American rejected by the Vicente Calderon club.

Atletico will want at least £40million for the striker, whose agent Bruno Satin said: "A summer move for Kun? That is a good question. Currently, we have no idea. Players like Sergio are always being tracked by the world's top clubs.

"Chelsea and Manchester United are big clubs, and they monitor him, but so do Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, Inter Milan and Barcelona. These are the clubs that regularly monitor the best.

"Sergio is still only 22 and he has had only four years in Europe, playing at a club which is not a regular in the Champions League.

"Obviously, the boy would like to play football at the highest level. But there is nothing concrete at the minute; we have to look at things in the summer."
