Atletico reject Aguero reports

18 August 2009 11:22
Sergio Aguero has travelled to Greece with Atletico Madrid after the club rejected rumours he could be sold to Chelsea. Aguero has been linked with a move away from Atletico this summer, with a number of top European sides said to be admirers of his qualities. Premier League team Chelsea are the latest to be mooted as suitors as manager Carlo Ancelotti reportedly looks to bolster his frontline with a star name. However, Argentina international Aguero's likely involvement in Atletico's UEFA Champions League match in Panathinaikos looks set to quell rumours of a possible deal. Should Aguero play on Wednesday then he would become ineligible to feature for another side, including Chelsea, in the Champions League group stage this season. Atletico head coach Abel Resino said: "Aguero travelled with us (to Athens) to play and there is no chance of a sale. "This rubbishes all the rumours that have been in the newspapers." Club president Enrique Cerezo added: "We have not received an offer from Chelsea. "This story happens each summer but our answer is always the same - Sergio will stay with us."
