#2 Sergio Aguero
David Silva was not the only current Manchester City star who was on Liverpool's radar. Sergio Aguero was being monitored by the Reds. The summer of 2006 almost saw him become a Red. The then-Independiente wonderkid was a hot commodity and looked for a move to Europe, particularly the Premier League. He even spoke about how he was a Liverpool fan. "I watched the Champions League final and celebrated every goal as if it was for Independiente.", Aguero said.
He would have ended up at Anfield, possibly forging a pretty strong career there had it not been for the ridiculously high fee. However, the Argentine moved to Atletico Madrid for £17 million. The Reds were not able nor were they willing to shell out that kind of money for a teenager. Since then, Aguero has developed into one of the game's greatest strikers and is currently Man City's all-time leading goalscorer.
