BarcelonaSergio When Agüero has granted an interview to the program You will say of RAC1. The Argentine striker spoke about his injury, his great friend Leo Messi, the team’s expectations and clarified the controversial words about how far ahead he can train at Barça. Agüero, injured, has not yet made his debut on the pitch as a Barça player, but he is getting closer to his debut: “I’m making a lot of progress. Maybe I’ll be able to shorten the deadlines by a few weeks.” Being optimistic about the date on which he will be able to defend Barça’s shield for the first time, Kun remembers how last season all possible obstacles were put in his way. “I had knee surgery in July and the recovery lasted until December. I went through the covid and that made it all even longer. In the end, City was already in a great moment and it was very difficult to get back into the starting team, ”the Etihad Stadium legend recounts.
Agüero arrived at Barça with the letter of release this summer, and his eyes lit up when he talked about playing with Messi, but the start of the 10th frustrated a union agreed by the two protagonists. “Leo was at a time in the Copa America when he already believed that everything was closed,” said the striker. Despite not having his great friend, Kun wanted to defend that he was clear that he wanted to play at the Camp Nou: “When I signed, Leo had not renewed.” And even knowing the complicated situation of the club, the striker with a mattress past did not hesitate: “I told my representative that money was not the most important thing, that I wanted Barça”. His fifteen years in the elite of European football give Kun an experience that allows him to see every situation with the necessary perspective. “I understand how Barça is, we all know that there are a lot of debts financially. It’s normal that anything can happen.” But even some situations go beyond the experience of most veterans, such as the march on Griezmann’s horn. “We didn’t expect it, and all of a sudden, pum, it disappears.”
He hasn’t made his debut yet, but Kun says he’s already Catalan. He wants to collaborate with the club and be an example for young footballers. “If the youngest members of the team now help Barça, surely when the club improves financially it will want to reward them.” Agüero also admitted that Barça is not having its best moment, but wanted to highlight the club: “I played against Barça, and not always at the best time for the club. But as a player you always say: “I don’t think we are favorites, but all the rivals respect Barça. A lot of people don’t expect a great performance from us in the Champions League, but I tell them: be careful.” Knowing that the situation is not idyllic, Agüero does not throw in the towel for any competition. “All I want is to win titles. The Cup too, I don’t have it!”
Five seasons with Pep Guardiola
The Argentine striker arrives in Barcelona after having spent five seasons under the command of one of the greatest exponents of Barcelona, Pep Guardiola. Of Santpedor, Agüero keeps a great memory. “From the first day he established his style of play, and it made my life a lot easier. All I had to do was move close to the area and he just asked me to score goals. He is a person who never stops. “We won a title, we trained the next day and he said, ‘Come on, let’s go.’
In this sense, the Argentine also wanted to clarify a few words he said on Ibai Llanos’ Twitch in which he stated that he was going to train at City an hour and a half before the session started, in case he had to go to the gym or any other issue, and that, on the other hand, in Barcelona, he presented himself thirty minutes before a training session and “there was no one”. “The training is very demanding and very good. What I said was a joke. When I arrived on the first day, the team was not there, I was stage in Germany. And of course, there was literally no one on the premises. “
