Manchester City striker Sergio Aguero has said that the Premier League club are aware that he will leave the Etihad Stadium at the end of his current deal.
Aguero, who has been at City since 2011, plans to return to former club Independiente in 2019, and insists that there is no possibility of extending his time in the North-West.
The 27-year-old told radio station Independiente en la Uno: "It is all set. I am going to retire at Independiente. My family knows, I will return as soon as I finish out my contract with Manchester City. Here they are already aware. They know that I want to return to Argentina. I am giving my word, from England, that I shall return to Avellaneda. I dream of playing with my brothers.
"Here at the club they are great with me, they always told me that they were open if the chance of a transfer arises. But where am I going to go in Europe?
"No, when I go, when my contract ends, I'm going to Argentina to play for El Rojo. From Manchester, straight to Avellaneda."
Aguero has scored 138 goals in 193 appearances in all competitions during his time with City.
