Argentine footballer Sergio Aguero is currently playing as a striker for both Premier League club Manchester City and the Argentine national team. His ambition is to one day replace Lionel Messi as the world's leading player. The all-round forward is best known for his spectacular dribbling, direct runs, ball control and strength. He was awarded FIFA Young Player of the Year 2007 and La Liga Ibero-American Player of the Year 2008.
Aguero drew the attention of Europe's top clubs after he moved from Independiente to La Liga side Atletico Madrid in 2006. In July 2011, the player joined Manchester City for a five-year deal said to be worth £35 million (€42.35 million), making him the most expensive footballer in the club's history.
