Sergio Aguero‘s Manchester City statue outside the Etihad Stadium will be unveiled in 2022, standing alongside those of Vincent Kompany and David Silva.
The striker spent a decade at City before joining Barcelona this summer. A decade which saw him win five Premier League titles, six League Cups and an FA Cup, scoring 260 goals in 390 appearances.
Aguero scored 260 goals for City between 2011-2021. Possibly his most famous came at the end of that debut season, when he slammed in a dramatic late winner against QPR to seal City’s first top-flight title in 44 years.
The Argentine star has announced his retirement from football but will remain in the hearts of Manchester City fans for evermore.
Following Aguero’s emotional retirement announcement, the club have confirmed that Sergio Agüero’s statue outside the Etihad Stadium will be unveiled in 2022, standing alongside those of Vincent Kompany and David Silva.
The news was shared on Twitter by City Xtra and it attracted plenty of attention from the club’s supporters, who took to the social media platform to share their thoughts and opinions.
Here are what the supporters are saying:
