Inter Milan are preparing a bid for Manchester City striker Sergio Aguero.

The Daily Expresssays Inter's rich Chinese owners Suning Holdings have put Aguero at the top of their summer shopping list and are confident of doing a deal.

Argentina hit man, 28, has had an uneasy relationship with Pep Guardiola who has dropped him from the side for some major games.

Aguero has been City's main striker since he was signed from Atlético Madrid in July 2011 and has helped them win two Premier League titles.

But he found himself overlooked in favour of new boy Gabriel Jesus at West Ham in midweek and faces more time on the sidelines between now and the end of the season.

Suning want to make a statement signing and are willing to dig deep into their cash reserves for the right man and make an offer that would be hard to reject.

Aguero earns around £220,000 a week at the Etihad Stadium and around be offered as much as £300,000 a week to move to Italy.
