SERGIO KUN AGÜERO: HIS AGE, HIS CURRENT PARTNER AND HIS ILLNESS

Published

on

Born in 1988 in Buenos Aires, his rise to fame in Argentina came in 2003 , when he made his debut in the Argentine first division at the Atlético Independiente club. He did it by snatching the title of youngest player in his debut from Diego Maradona himself, who would end up being his father-in-law years later.

In 2006 he landed at Atlético de Madrid, where he became the star of the team and managed to win a Uefa Europa League. After becoming one of the best forwards in Europe, in 2011 he would leave Spain to move to England.

Kun Agüero became a legend of the British team, being the highest non-English scorer in the history of the Premier League. After more than a decade of happiness, in 2021 he decided to return to Spain and do it to help the recovery of FC Barcelona .

In the city of Barcelona, ​​he had to fulfill the dream of playing with his friend Leo Messi, but the Argentine star changed his scene and decided to sign for PSG, leaving Sergio as the star of the team. That status was short-lived, as a heart problem forced him to retire permanently in December 2021 .

YOUR NAME

He uses the nickname “Kun” throughout his career as it is a nickname he has had since childhood. He is based on the protagonist of the children’s series Kum-Kum .

Regarding his personal life, he had a son with Gianinna Maradona, daughter of former soccer player Diego Armando Maradona. They began their relationship in 2008 and as a result of it , little Benjamin would come into the world in 2009 while he was a member of Atlético de Madrid .

He had a four-year relationship with the star’s daughter and, although they ended on good terms, over time they have experienced several quarrels and disagreements about the custody of their son .

Kun has been able to rebuild his life with a girl nine years younger than him. This is Sofía Calzetti, a 24-year-old Argentine ‘influencer’ with whom he has been dating since 2019 . The two met at a nightclub and have not been separated since.

Soon after, she made the important decision to move to Manchester, the city where Kun Agüero kept playing for Manchester City until 2021, when he signed for FC Barcelona .

HIS UNEXPECTED WITHDRAWAL

Sofia has been the footballer’s most important support in the hard times he went through when he was forced to make the decision to quit football. His heart told him enough during his first game with the Catalan team at the Camp Nou .

When the diagnosis was confirmed and that it was an arrhythmia, everything suggested that his professional career was over. That’s how it was, since on December 15, 2021 he announced his withdrawal from him.

HIS FUTURE AWAY FROM FOOTBALL

Kun’s future seems to be linked to the world of Twitch and television, since he has become one of the great ‘streamers’ of recent years .

The confinement of the year 2020 caused by the pandemic made him start broadcasting on the social network. What started as a simple entertainment, became a community of more than 3 million subscribers .

Those long days of games made him forge a great friendship with Ibai Llanos, with whom he met again in the city of Barcelona in 2021, which has helped him to start a new life after retiring .

Kun Agüero works with a representation company with which Manchester City collaborates, a club in which England is a legend. With them he created Slak Esports Europe, an eSports team with which he has focused on signing other players , as well as participating himself.

The former soccer player is the owner of 80% of this club, although he is also a component and has focused on games like FIFA and Valorant, in which he has already begun to stand out and with which he continues to broadcast live on Twitch.
