Former Argentina striker, Sergio Aguero, has claimed there is a possibility for Manchester City to still end up as Premier League champions this season.
City are nine points behind Arsenal, but have an outstanding fixture to play.
Despite the inconsistent form of Pep Guardiola’s team, Aguero was quick to point out the 2011/2012 campaign as an example.
When asked if City could still win the league title, Aguero told Stake: “Why not? It’s difficult, of course.
“But it was also difficult in 2012 and we all know how that ended.
“These are different moments, but what I mean is that in the Premier League nothing is decided until the very end.”
