Manchester City may regret selling Gabriel Jesus to Arsenal and Raheem Sterling to Chelsea, according to former striker Sergio Aguero.
Jesus, Mikel Arteta’s No.1 transfer target this summer, joined Arsenal for a whopping £45m earlier this month and penned a five-year contract.
Sterling moved to Chelsea in another £45m deal, with the England international reportedly agreeing terms on a £300,000-a-week deal.
Aguero played with both men at the Etihad Stadium under Pep Guardiola, and the Argentine striker feels the club may have made a mistake in letting them leave. ‘Both players were important in the City scheme,’ Aguero told Stake.com. ‘I’m sure City will miss them a lot as they are great players. ‘There will be a new make-up of the attack but this is a team with a great squad that will be ready for new challenges.’ Sterling, 27, has played a pivotal role in City winning the Premier League in four of the last five seasons but is looking for more regular starts ahead of the Qatar World Cup later this year.
