Agent says Atletico striker tempted by Serie A switch

Sergio Aguero's agent is keeping in contact with Juventus and says there is a 'concrete' chance the Atletico Madrid striker could move to the Italian club. Argentina international Aguero is keen to leave Atletico over the summer and has been linked with a string of clubs, including arch-rivals Real Madrid and Chelsea. However, Juve have spent much of the summer trying to agree a deal for the 23-year-old as the Old Lady embark on a rebuilding process following a disappointing last season. Atletico reportedly want €45million (£40.3m) for Aguero, with the highly-rated forward open to a transfer to Turin. His representative Bruno Satin confirmed talks are ongoing and that there is a strong possibility that Aguero could move to Serie A. "Contact with the Bianconeri has been constant," Satin told Tuttosport. "Aguero wants to move to a big club and Juventus fits this profile. "We are aware of the club's rebuilding plans, but that isn't enough to impede an agreement. "The chances of seeing Aguero wear the Juve jersey are concrete."
