Aguero: I'm the not the new Maradona

The pressure that goes with being the Premier League's brightest new star is nothing compared to the ordeal Sergio Aguero must have gone through when he was granted an audience with his prospective father-in-law back in 2007.

It's fair to assume 19-year-old Aguero was quivering as he waltzed into Diego Maradona's palatial home as the new man in his beloved daughter Giannina's life, with that defining moment in his life likely to make his imminent Premier League debut for Manchester City seem like a walk in the park.

Time will tell whether £38 million signing Aguero has what it takes to transform the world's richest club into contenders for Premier League and European glory, but this intimate insight into his psyche suggests he has the temperament to handle the expectations about to pour down upon him.
