Micah Richards claims Sergio Aguero LIED about his English to avoid interviews during his time at Manchester City... and even knew slang terms!

Former Manchester City striker Sergio Aguero reportedly lied about his ability to speak english to avoid interviews, according to former team-mate Micah Richards.

The Argentine spent a decade with City and became an icon after becoming the club's all-time leading goalscorer.

He rarely did interviews during his time in the Premier League as he struggled to speak English - but that was all a facade.

Richards - who won the Premier League title alongside Aguero in 2012 - has revealed the striker spoke 'brilliant' English and even knew slang terms.
