Atlético Mulling New Agüero Deal

Sergio Agüero's agent is confident that Atlético de Madrid will begin talks over a new deal because he feels the player's buy-out clause is currently too low.

The 19-year-old has become hot property after an impressive summer in the U-20 World Cup with Argentina and with his strong start to the Spanish league, where he has netted five goals.

Agüero's current deal containts a €36m buy-out clause and IMG's Maxi Lo Russo believes that in time Atlético will agree that the figure needs to be raised to ward off major clubs.

"We are calm. Here, with what has to be done, there is time," he said.

"The season has only just started and we are in permanent contact with the club .

"We have a friendly relationship and Sergio just wants to continue playing and try to be do as well as possible.

"The other thing will be sorted out.

"Although his current buy-out clause is not low, it not that high either and we presume that Atlético are analysing the prospect of renewing his deal."

Atlético president, Enrique Cerezo, was not prepared to talk publicly about the situation as he did not want a repeat of ongoing saga that eventually saw Fernando Torres leave.

"I do not want to start another soap opera like the one we saw with Torres," he stated.

"The day that something happens we will let everyone know, but at the moment we do not want him to become unsettled.

"I am not going to start talking about this while nothing has happened."
