The Argentine feels he is prevented from giving his best in the Spaniard’s high-pressing system.
Aguero’s £250,000-a-week contract runs until 2020. But last week he said: “The club will decide if I have a place here or not.
“I have three months to do my best, then we’ll see what the club wants to do with me.”
Yet SunSport understands he is ready to end his 5½-year adventure.

And a source close to Aguero said: “Kun has always been a box player.
“He reckons he works hard enough and what is being asked of him is too difficult to do.
“It’s not because he is lazy but because the way Pep wants to play is not natural to Kun.”
His cause has not been helped by the introduction of Brazilian starlet Gabriel Jesus, 19. Aguero supports Jesus but will NOT play second fiddle.
