Manchester City striker Sergio Aguero has stated that he is encouraged by the partnership he has already struck up with new teammate Kevin De Bruyne.
Belgium international De Bruyne has made a productive start to his City career, scoring seven goals in 14 appearances since moving to the Etihad Stadium from Wolfsburg at the end of August.
Aguero has been sidelined for the past month with a hamstring injury, but the Argentine has said that he is looking forward to teaming up with De Bruyne again once he is fit.
"I'm really happy because I think the club did a great piece of business bringing Kevin in and you are always happy when a quality player arrives and he is certainly that," he told City's official website.
"The few chances I've had to play alongside him have been encouraging because we started to get an understanding of how each other plays.
"As I say, he is a great player and it's really important he settles in and shows us what he can do and he's also a great lad off the field as well so I'm looking forward to playing alongside him again."
Aguero has scored eight goals in 11 appearances for City this season.
