Barcelona, PSG alerted after Aguero confirms emotional Man City exit

Sergio Aguero has confirmed he will leave Manchester City at the end of the season.

The 32-year-old joined City from Atletico Madrid and has since become the club's record goal scorer with 257 goals from 384 appearances.

Aguero is out of contract in the summer and the Premier League club will not renew his deal.

"When a cycle comes to an end, may sensations arise," Aguero said on Twitter.

"A huge sense of satisfaction and pride remains in me for having played with Manchester City for a whole ten seasons - unusual for a professional player in this day and age.

"Ten seasons with major achievements, throughout which I was able to become the top historic goalscorer and forging an indestructible bond with all those who love this club - people who will always be in my heart.

"I was to join during the reconstruction era of 2011, and with the guidance of the owners and the contributions of many players, we earned a place among the greatest in the world.

"The task to maintain this well-deserved privileged position will remain on other. As for myself, I will continue to give it my utmost for the rest of the season to win more titles and bring more joy to the fans.

"Then, a new stage with new challenges will begin and I am fully ready to face them with the same passion and professionalism that I have always dedicated to continue competing at the highest level."

Barcelona, Juventus and PSG are just some of the names being linked with the Argentina international.
