The Argentine forward has surprised everybody by claiming that the Red Devils are ‘one of the biggest threats’ for the Premier League title.
Manchester United supporters would have had high ambitions of challenging their noisy neighbours at the start of their Premier League campaign, but those hopes have slowly dissipated since.
Erik ten Hag’s side currently sits in seventh place in the table and eleven points off Arsenal who are top.
With Tottenham and Aston Villa kicking it up a gear, the race for the Champions League spots will be as competitive as ever for United.
But Sergio Aguero believes that they can not only qualify for the European competition but can challenge his old team for the title.
“You can never sleep on Man United at this stage of the season.” He told Stake.com via Football.London.
“They are one of the biggest threats to Man City’s Premier League title.”
He then went on to claim that both Spurs and Newcastle are ‘also in with a chance of the title.’
Although anything can happen in the Premier League, it is looking more and more likely that Arsenal, Liverpool, Manchester City and maybe even Aston Villa will challenge.
