Manchester City’s Sergio Agüero signs new five-year contract
The club confirmed that the 26-year-old Argentina striker had signed a deal which would keep him at the Etihad Stadium until 2019, Kazinform has learnt from The Guardian .
"The reality seems to be that ever since I came here, during every close season, there have always been rumours suggesting that I might be returning to Spain," Agüero told the club's official website.
"There has always been this speculation, but I certainly never pay much attention to it. People hear this stuff flying around and they take it seriously, but I can tell the fans and everyone at City to relax - I'm going to be here until I see out my contract."
Agüero joined City from Atlético Madrid in 2011 and quickly established himself as a fans' favourite, writing his name into the club's history books by scoring the dramatic title-clinching winner against QPR in his first season.
"Each year, I aim to better the previous one," he said.
"Last season was incredible but I'm not just satisfied with two Premier League titles - I want more and I can achieve them here alongside my team-mates.
"We have enjoyed lots of success and some incredible moments, but the overall vision for the future and where we are going are the reasons why I wanted to stay here - to win trophies and to keep making history through my best years," said Agüero."
