According to reports from Spain, Sergio Aguero is keeping the door open on a move to Leeds United this summer, with Marcelo Bielsa thought to be a key factor in the potential switch.

The report by Mundo Deportivo (via Sport Witness) claims that Leeds are "in the picture" to land Aguero this summer, with the 32-year-old set to leave Manchester City at the end of the season.

It is reported that, despite interest from Barcelona, Juventus and Paris Saint-Germain, Marcelo Bielsa's position as manager at Leed is of "importance" to Aguero, and that the Argentine values the proposal of playing for the Whites.

Furthermore, another advantage that Leeds are said to hold is their readiness to make a move for the Manchester City star, with it being claimed that both Juventus and PSG would have to sell players before sanctioning any deal.

Transfer Tavern Take

With Sport Witness' translation claiming that Aguero is prioritising the "sporting project" ahead of "economic proposals" when deciding his next move, as the 32-year-old wants to feature regularly for his new side in order to secure a place in Argentina's 2022 World Cup squad, this could be yet another feather in Leeds' cap in their pursuit of the centre-forward.

Despite the fact that Rodrigo is classed as a centre-forward, the Spaniard has often been played in a deeper role this season, meaning that Bielsa's only real option as a senior striker is Patrick Bamford.

As such, if the man Pep Guardiola recently claimed is "irreplaceable" were to join Leeds this summer, all the Argentine would have to do is convince Bielsa that he is a better option to lead the line than Bamford in order to become the Whites' main man up top, or perhaps even tempt Bielsa to deploy them both together.
