No.10 Shirt: Sergio Aguero Wants Foden to step forward

 

Sergio Aguero wants Phil Foden to inherit the No.10 shirt he is vacating at Manchester City.

City’s record goalscorer Aguero is leaving at the expiration of his contract next month and looks set to return to La Liga with Barcelona after seven wonderful, trophy-laden seasons in English football.

Aguero started his life as a Manchester City player in England’s top tier in August 2011 when he was a substitute for the game against Swansea City.

He has gone on to win five league titles, one FA Cup and six League Cups in his decade with the club.

Next Saturday he will have the chance to add one more piece of silverware, with City heading to Portugal to face Chelsea in the Champions League final, before heading off to his next club.
