Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola says Sergio Aguero can still play an important role for the club after returning from a serious knee injury but the Argentine striker has to show he can deliver on the pitch if he is to earn a new contract. Aguero, who joined City in 2011 and is their all-time leading scorer with 254 goals, is out of contract at the end of the season and can speak to overseas clubs from January. “Sergio now has to show, like every one of us, that he deserves to continue here — keep playing well, scoring goals and winning games ­— and after that the club and I will decide,” said Guardiola. “But if he’s playing in his level we don’t have any doubts that he’s a player to stay until he decides because he’s unique.
