long shot is an understatement, but I will be crushed if this transfer doesn't happen.

Atletico Madrid CEO Gil Marin says the club has received a letter from Juventus regarding Sergio Aguero's availability, but there is no offer on the table.
Earlier, Juve director general Giuseppe Marotta said his club were looking for a player with similar qualities to Aguero, Carlos Tevez and Karim Benzema.
And it seems the first contact between the Spanish and Italian clubs has been initiated.
"We received a letter last Monday [from Juventus] and they want to negotiate the transfer of the player. They did not name a figure and we have not provided a response," Marin told Radio Marca.
"In any case, we will not give any discount in relation to the €45 million clause."
Real Madrid have also been linked with the 22-year-old, but Atleti seem reluctant to sit down with their city rivals.
"We do not intend to speak with Real Madrid, and Florentino Perez has given us his word he will not try to get the player," he added.
"Aguero can join any club who pays the full clause fee, but not Real Madrid. If he wants to leave he can."
If any club offers to meet the €45m buy-out clause then Atleti will be contractually bound to negotiate a deal.

pleaaaaaaaaaaaaaaase
I can't help but feel Sanchez would represent a better value for us. The Chilean would command a fraction of the wages, and we could include players to bring his price down (Giovinco).
As exciting as the prospect of seeing Aguero play in Juve is, I will not fap over his arrival until I see the rest of the starting 11. If signing Aguero means we fill our squad with Ziegler's and Pazienza's, and continue to leak more goals than teams in the bottom of the table, than Marotta did not spend wisely.
