AS-Madrid is reporting today that the agreement is complete between Atletico Madrid, Independeinte and Aguero. The transfer would be for $20 million and the contract for 8 years. In the past 2 days, in "De una con Niembro" on La Red, Fernando Niembro had mentioned that negotiations were close to reaching an agreement between the parties ... even thou no details were revealed. It seems we'll see great Madrid derbies. .
Re: Sergio Aguero will play for Atletico Madrid!!! Yes!!! If this information is confirmed, then it would be the ideal move. Damn, I'll have to buy a sat dish and go for Spanish sport channels;-)
Re: Sergio Aguero will play for Atletico Madrid!!! Well, I hope the info is true, because I have not yet seen any news in the Argentinian press about that. Also according to the article, Atletico agree on the price of 20M euros, but they still have to find an agreement on modalities of payment. I guess that Independiente won't be very happy to sell the guy on credit...
Re: Sergio Aguero will play for Atletico Madrid!!! Chau Kun? Atletico will be selling Petrov, who cost them 12 mil Euros, as he did not perform as expected. They should easily get the same amount they paid for him from Bundesliga or EPL. Perea is suppossed to be heading out too ... possibly ot Milan. The money will be there. .
Re: Sergio Aguero will play for Atletico Madrid!!! I am both happy and excited about this move. Atlethico Madrid plays very good football and there are some Argies too in the team who will help him but most of all his playing style suits La Liga. Atlethico has always been underachiver, i hope this move brings lots of good footballing movements for Atlethico fans and for us Argientinina and Aguero's fan. they wil have one of the great attakcing lineup with Torres and Aguero and they both are so young. good luck Athletico and Aguero.
Re: Sergio Aguero will play for Atletico Madrid!!! DAMN, I wanted him to stay a bit longer to see how he performs in Libertadores
Re: Sergio Aguero will play for Atletico Madrid!!! It's a damn shame that a once-upon-a-time big club like Independiente, with such a great tradition, cannot hold on to a star for even a couple of years. It sucks for Argentine football. But under the circumstances, I'm glad he's going to Atletico de Madrid. Good luck to him.
Re: Sergio Aguero will play for Atletico Madrid!!! It is a shame Aguero will be leaving Indepenediente. Of course in Argentina they say it is not yet a done deal but we all know it is inevitable that he will leave. This is the price we pay when you have inversionistas owning all or partial rights to a player. They have their own interests involved rather than the player's. I am an Independiente fan but Aguero needs to stay in Argentina at least one more year, if not more, to develop more as both a player and as a person.
Re: Sergio Aguero will play for Atletico Madrid!!! I thought the maximum a contract could be for was 5 years?
Re: Sergio Aguero will play for Atletico Madrid!!! Does this mean Independiente will be debt free? Or will they still be in the red?
Re: Sergio Aguero will play for Atletico Madrid!!! From what I heard Comparada say a few weeks back, they are paying back I believe 60% of the debt ... which would write it off completely. With the remaining they will invest in developing their youngsters and sign a few players. Aguero's sale will give the club the chance to have a new tomorrow ... but without him. .
Re: Sergio Aguero will play for Atletico Madrid!!! I remember in the early 90's, Independiente was the team where they had the most club members (socios) and due to poor team management wether its bad coaching, bad players, and worst of all bad administration lead to what they are today. Which is very sad. They are doing a bit better from previous years not including the year they won it all but as an Argentinean soccer fan I would like to see "el rojo" what they were before.A team with great history not only as a local but internacionally. I think they can get to what they used to be by the help of Sergio Agueros transfer to europe.

Sergio Aguero Bit bored at work today (but don't tell anyone , anyway I was wondering what, if anything, is happening with Sergio Aguero? Is his transfer to Athletico Madrid still on, is he going to Barca, Real Madrid, has anyone heard/read anything?
Re: Sergio Aguero as far as i know, he will be playing for atletico madrid next year. i thought his transfer was already done?
Re: Sergio Aguero JuveFE, It appeared to be done and dusted but then it went all quite so I'm not sure what's happening. The fee i saw mentioned was 28 million euros. Look forward to seeing him play in La Liga.
Re: Sergio Aguero will play for Atletico Madrid!!! It's now a done deal. http://soccernet.espn.go.com/news/story?id=369484&cc=5739 Atletico agree fee for Independiente starlet MADRID, May 29 (Reuters) - Atletico Madrid's major shareholder Miguel Angel Gil Marin has said the Primera Liga club has agreed a deal with Independiente's 17-year-old Argentine
[BigSoccer News] Precio récord por Agüero: 28 millones de dólares Es la suma más alta de la historia pagada por un argentino. Y la compra más cara del Atlético. Independiente, además, retiene el 10% del pase. Link To Original Article
Re: Sergio Aguero will play for Atletico Madrid!!! Only yesterday was the transaction with Atletico Madrid for Aguero finished. Independiente owned 75% of the player (the other 25% was by a group of agents). The deal will bring 16 million net to the club. Also, Independiente keeps 10% of the player and will take 20% of anything top of the 19 million of a future sale of Kun. Independiente will get 6 million now and 10 million in the next 18 months. Independiente's economy was re-estructured thru the courts. Thru that agreement, Independiente will have to pay the 7 million it owes in 10 years, starting to pay in 2 years. The Aguero sale helps the club with fresh money to buy players, fix the stadium and for the day to day operations. Aguero has been the "economic savior" for Independiente. Here is an article .
