Madrid: Man Utd target Aguero not for sale

Atletico Madrid insist in-demand striker Sergio Aguero is not for sale this summer. Manchester United are the latest club to be linked with the Argentine star, along with Chelsea and Inter Milan.

Atletico are determined to keep hold of the 21 year old and president Enrique Cerezo is confident Aguero will remain at Vicente Calderon next season.

"I know that the big clubs of Europe are interested in our player, but I have spoken with the people next to Kun and I am convinced that next season he will continue in the squad," said Cerezo.

An Atletico spokesman insists the club have not received any offers for the South American.

"We have not received formally any offers and the club's board of directors have had a meeting and the decision is clear - Kun Aguero is not for sale and only if a club pay his release clause could an exit be possible," said the spokesman.
