The career of Sergio Aguero is full of memorable moments.

Sergio Aguero is one of the few clinical finishers in the game. The Argentinian joined Barcelona on a free transfer from the English side of Man City but since arriving at Camp Nou Aguero has not hit the ground running due to injuries.

Sergio Aguero’s goal-scoring history at Manchester City can never go unnoticed and same is in at the International level with Argentina.

After featuring a few games at Barcelona reports have revealed that the former Man City player could retire earlier due to heart problems he is currently healing from.

The former Atletico star was diagnosed with cardiac arrhythmia, which causes an irregular heartbeat. This condition will make him unable to continue to play at the highest level and as a result, he has to retire from the game.

The news comes as a major shock to the football fraternity, which considers Sergio Aguero to be one of the best strikers of his generation.

The Argentine’s career is full of memorable moments because of his incredible performance over the years

The first-ever Premier League triumph

The biggest achievement and perhaps the most memorable in Aguero’s career has to be the first-ever Premier League win.

The achievement itself was big but the manner in which it was achieved made it sweeter. The City club needed a last-minute goal to win their final match of the league season to lift their maiden Premier League title.

Sergio Aguero scored the iconic goal to guide the Blues to the Premier League title. That was the moment when City pipped rivals and neighbors Manchester United to the league title on goal difference, thanks to Sergio Aguero in 2012.

UEFA Europa League winner

He won the UEFA Europa League with Atletico Madrid in 2009/10. In addition to that, Aguero also won the UEFA Super Cup with the Spanish giants in 2010/11.

Copa America winner

There was a huge feeling of relief when Argentina finally won the Copa America 2021 after a gap of many years. For Lionel Messi and Sergio Aguero, this was the one trophy that kept eluding them for several years.

This was perhaps the last opportunity for both individuals to win the coveted continental trophy and they finally did it in 2021.

Olympics gold medal winner

Sergio Aguero had a lot of near-misses when it came to winning an international major trophy with Argentina.

However, he started on a strong note by winning the Olympics gold with the Argentina U-23 team. The squad included the likes of Lionel Messi and Angel Di Maria that won gold at the 2008 Beijing Games.

FIFA Golden Boy winner

Sergio Aguero was a big talent from a very young age. He was considered as one of the most promising young players back in the 2000s and went on to fulfill his potential.

He also got recognition for his talent by winning the FIFA Golden Boy award in 2007. Players like Lionel Messi and Wayne Rooney had won the honor before him, which puts Aguero in an elite category.

15 trophies with Manchester City

Manchester City dominated the 2010s and Aguero was at the center of it all. From the first-ever Premier League win to the last, Aguero won multiple trophies with the club.

In the span of 10 years, he won 15 titles with the Cityzens. Those trophies include five league titles, six League Cups, one FA Cup and three FA Community Shields.

Second-highest appearance maker for Manchester City

Sergio Aguero is considered a legend for Manchester City fans and will soon get a statue of himself installed outside of the Etihad Stadium. During his 10 years at the club, Aguero set several records, including being the second-highest appearance maker for the club. The Argentine featured 390 appearances in all competitions, only second to David Silva who made 436 appearances.

Highest goalscorer in the history of Manchester City

Sergio Aguero has a legendary status at Manchester City. The striker spent 10 years at the club after signing in 2011 and leaving in 2021. During that time, the Argentine scored a total of 260 goals for the club in all competitions. The second best is Raheem Sterling with 117 goals.

Highest foreign goalscorer in the Premier League

Premier League is arguably the most competitive league in the world, which attracts the top talents across the globe.

Sergio Aguero was one of the best foreign imports in England’s first division and the numbers back the claim. He scored a total of 184 goals in the Premier League, the most for an overseas player. All three players above him Andy Cole, Wayne Rooney, and Alan Shearer are from England.

Youngest debutant in Argentina’s first-division

Sergio Aguero made his debut for Independiente as a 15-years-old. He was a sensation in Argentina from an early age and had a very promising career ahead of him.

Atletico Madrid recognized his talent and signed him before anyone could. The record for being the youngest player to feature in the first division of Argentina still stands now.
