Posted Tuesday, November 17, 2015 by Foxsports.com

Manchester City striker Sergio Aguero has hailed the impact of off-season arrivals Kevin de Bruyne and Nicolas Otamendi.

The duo signed for the club in big-money deals during the off-season transfer window and have impressed in the early months of the season.

De Bruyne has netted six goals in 14 appearances since arriving and Aguero has been impressed with what he's seen.

"I'm really happy because I think the club did a great piece of business bringing Kevin in and you are always happy when a quality player arrives and he is certainly that," he said.

"The few chances I've had to play alongside him have been encouraging because we started to get an understanding of how each other plays.

"As I say, he is a great player and it's really important he settles in and shows us what he can do and he’s also a great lad off the field as well so I'm looking forward to playing alongside him again."

On Otamendi, Aguero added: "Nico is a good player who will help our team – and the more Argentinians the better as far as I'm concerned! He had a great season with Valencia last season and that’s helped earn him a move here.

"We need a big squad because we've got lots of games and many competitions we're trying to win and all the players we've brought in over the summer have made us stronger."
