Real Madrid Will Pursue Sergio Aguero If Alexis Sanchez Joins Man City

Real Madrid will attempt to sign Sergio Aguero if Arsenal star Alexis Sanchez joins Manchester City, according to reports.

                  

Real Madrid look likely to sign a top attacker in the foreseeable future with their La Liga campaign already a shambles.

Los Blancos pipped Barcelona to the prize last term but, with Cristiano Ronaldo and Karim Benzema misfiring, have been unable to challenge the Catalan giants for the trophy this time around.

And Spanish website Don Balon report Real Madrid are planning a spending spree in January, with Aguero among their top targets.

The Argentina international has been in fine form this season, scoring nine goals to fire Pep Guardiola’s men to the summit.

But, with Gabriel Jesus also blossoming at the Etihad Stadium, he is no longer guaranteed to start week in, week out.

City could make a splash by landing another Madrid target - Sanchez - in January.

And, should the Arsenal man join Guardiola’s revolution, then that is likely to see Agueroshow the door.

Real would then be waiting to pounce with open arms, making the forward their replacement for Benzema.

Don Balon even go as far to say that City would be willing to sell Aguero to Madrid for the right price.

Real Madrid may go for Sergio Aguero if Alexis Sanchez joins Man City.

However, if both men remain at their current clubs, Real could go for Inter Milan’s Mauro Icardi instead.

But the 24-year-old has insisted he is only focused on life at the San Siro.

"If I receive a phone call from Real Madrid, I won't answer,” he said.

"I do what I have to do on the field and then there are other people who take care of these matters.”
