Mikel Arteta sends message to departing City striker Sergio Aguero with summer transfer edging closer.
Manchester City talisman Sergio Aguero is set to exit Etihad after nine trophy-laden years in the North-West.
The Argentine joined City in 2011 and has scored a huge 258 goals for the club, winning five Premier League titles along the way.
And now, Aguero is reportedly nearing a move to Spanish giants Barcelona with his deal at City lapsing this summer.
Aguero could leave the Cityzens on a high with Pep Guardiola’s side should City see off Chelsea in next Saturday’s all-English Champions League final, having already obtained the Premier League title this season.
And with the Carabao Cup already in City’s trophy, Aguero could leave the Etihad Stadium this summer having helped his side to a treble.

Speaking before Aguero’s City farewell on Sunday, Arteta said: “It was an absolute joy to work with him.
“His character, his personality, he’s a loveable man and then one of the best talents that I’ve seen.
“What he’s done in this league for so long, scoring the amount of goals that he’s done.
“I think he was a player that contributed to change the perception of English football in different countries.
“What he’s done for Manchester City, I think he was a big contributor of changing the history, the mentality and the winning years that they had after that.”
