Aguero looking forward to derby clash with Real Madrid

Atletico Madird last managed to beat Real at home ten years ago.

“It will be difficult, but we want to do well and take our chances to beat Madrid. The derby is the ideal match to succeed,” he said, in an interview with AS.

” I want to play no matter what. The derby is a very nice game and we need all three points. It is the game you have most desire to win. And we want to give joy to Atletico people, who have gone many years without a victory. A derby is nice for the fans and for myself, it motivates me.

“Atletico are a great team and they will demonstrate it in this game. I would like to make all the Atletico fans happy.”

Aguero insists he is focussed on the derby and not on reports linking him with a move to Chelsea.

He added: “My mind is on the derby, it’s nice to say I could play in a team like Chelsea but I continue the same as before. I want to play for Atletico til the death. I took a four year contract at Atletico, I came here when I had just turned 18-years-old, I feel almost as if born here.

“This is a club that has given me much joy, sadness too, but it is an club in which I am very happy. I am grateful to the people and I marvel at Atletico.”
