Manchester City striker Sergio Aguero could be on his way out of the Etihad Stadium as his contract with the club is expected to expire this summer.
The 32-year-old is yet to have held talks with City regarding an extension to his current deal, and according to reports, Chelsea are already showing interest in the Argentine, who is keen on staying in England.
The Blues are currently the only English top-flight side who have registered their interest.
Borussia Dortmund forward Erling Braut Haaland has been heavily linked with a move to the West London outfit this summer.
Chelsea’s search for a new number nine has been prioritised by the club in recent months following the club’s dearth of firepower.
Failure to sign the Norwegian sensation could see Thomas Tuchel’s side step up their efforts to land Aguero ahead of other potential rivals including Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain.
Aguero, who is City’s all-time record goalscorer with 257 strikes to his name, has struggled with injuries throughout this campaign, and has managed 14 matches so far, scoring only three goals.
