It's no secret that Chelsea is intrigued by Sergio Aguero, but that partnership looks closer to becoming a reality after the Argentine striker revealed he is excited at the possibility of playing for the Blues.
Currently signed with Atletico Madrid, Aguero is keen on signing with a bigger club so as to win championships and feels Chelsea fits that bill. He also admitted the thought of playing alongside Didier Drogba is very appealing.
Atletico Madrid has already accepted defeat in terms of retaining Aguero, but will only sell him if the right price is offered.
Here are more transfer stories from the weekend:
Szetela trialing with Polish club Lechia Gdansk

Schweinsteiger open to leaving Bayern
Bastian Schweinsteiger enjoyed a fine performance at the World Cup and that may lead to him leaving Bayern Munich, the club which he has spent his entire professional career with. Schweinsteiger has been linked with clubs like Chelsea and Real Madrid, and while he is happy with Bayern, he is open to a move away from the German giant.
Keirrison to join Santos on loan
Barcelona forward Keirrison is set to be loaned out to Santos after his 18-month loan with Fiorentina was prematurely terminated. Just half a season into his deal, Keirrison is leaving the Italian club and looks to be loaned out to his third club in the last two years. He was loaned to Benfica in 2009.
Suarez eyes Premiership switch
Luis Suarez has said he is open to a move to the Premier League, with Manchester United and Tottenham being among the preferred destinations. While it is unclear how much interest has been expressed by the clubs, Suarez said Ajax will have a hard time keeping him if a Premier League team comes calling.
