Sergio Agüero returns to his first love?

On Monday, Sergio Agüero surprised the world by announcing that after 10 years he was leaving Manchester City. He was immediately linked to Barcelona, due to his relationship with Lionel Messi, with Paris Saint-Germain, Mauricio Pochettino and the Argentines Leandro Paredes, Ángel Di María and Mauro Icardi, with Juventus, for the "the new Karin Benzema", and also with Chelsea and Tottenham. However, in the last hours, his love club was very interested in signing him.

It's about Independiente, the club where Kun made his debut and played his first years as a professional player. And the one who ignited the illusion is his current coach, Julio César Falcioni, who is the same coach who gave him continuity before he emigrated to Atlético Madrid. "We're calling him", the seasoned coach began speaking to TyC Spors.

“We're talking with Yoyo (Héctor Maldonado, general secretary) and they are going to call him to see if he feels like it. If he feels like it, it would be a pleasure for me to direct him again. We know each other a lot, we had a year together and we both have fond memories of that time. Hopefully we can do some management”, said the Emperador, who saw the sudden growth of Agüero when he took his first steps in the Red before being sold to Europe.

He was also realistic: "Here he will not be able to sign something similar to what he wins there, but he would go back to being with all the friendly people defending the colors that he wants". And he added: "I know that he will have the intention to call him, to propose to him to return home, to return to the country and that he can be comfortable and can help us to make a bigger Independiente".

Falcioni announced that he will also communicate by phone with Kun as long as the first contact with the manager Yoyo Maldonado is positive. “If he stays in Europe, he would understand each other. This is a possibility that can be opened but before a proposal from Europe ... He has been abroad for many years, it would be good if he returned to be with his affections and led us to be a better team", said DT.

Without losing the happy grin on his face, the Avellaneda strategist joked: “Put Silvio Romero, Agüero, Menéndez and Palacios together? And sides that pass too. No, stop! Let me put up a defender”. And, laughing, he even slipped that he would not assure him ownership: “We've to put him back in this arena, which is brave, it is complicated. But he is a different player from the ones we all want to manage and have on our team. I already had it, I enjoyed it and hopefully I can have it again to continue enjoying it".
