Sergio Aguero has reaffirmed his commitment to Manchester City, with the Argentina striker suggesting rumours about his future are designed to try and unsettle him.

Aguero joined City from Atletico Madrid last summer and has been a huge success in his first season in the Premier League. Despite adapting superbly to life in England and showing no signs of unrest, reports have suggested he could be lured back to Spain.

His father in law, the Argentina great Diego Maradona, has claimed Aguero should make the move to Real Madrid - but the player has insisted he is not looking to leave City.

When asked if there was any truth in the rumours, Aguero said: "No no, all of that, no. The truth is that I am happy here, happy with my fellow players and the rest of the staff.

"The only thing I have to do is enjoy playing football.

"I hardly ever do interviews. Sometimes I have to get in touch to deny or correct the claims but I can't dispel every claim that is written about me.

"I repeat that I am very happy here and they invent things to try to compromise me."
