Chelsea are the favourites to land Manchester City striker Sergio Aguero when his contract expires at the end of the season, according to reports in Argentina.
Juventus and Barcelona are the other main contenders for his signature, while it is believed a return to his first club Independiente has been ruled out for now.
Supporters on Twitter are very much split over whether they would mind Aguero moving to Stamford Bridge, with some not particularly bothered, while others would be disappointed if he joins a Premier League rival:
He is finished, he can go anywhere.

No way should we let a rival take him. Chelsea are going to be strong next season as is

It's gonna be very strange see Aguero wearing another tone of blue as was very strange see Lampard wearing sky blue at that time. Once a Chelsea's idol came to us, now we can see a City's idol going to them.

If he goes to Chelsea he may win the 6th PL title.

If AGUERO signs for a premier league contender for me that's his Statue gone.

It is a surprise to hear that Aguero is willing to stay in England. Many had expected the 32-year-old to move to mainland Europe or even move back to Argentina.
However, it seems the forward feels he has unfinished business in the UK, and while a move to Chelsea would not be popular, it’s unlikely to break his bond with City supporters.
