Sergio Aguero’s announcement that he will leave Manchester City after the season has prompted an outpouring of reactions from players and fans around England.
The 32-year-old has left such a bold mark on the Premier League that even rivals have recognised his impact, with Manchester United’s Marcus Rashford saying on Monday that he is “very close to the top” of all-time great forwards in the division.
