'Sure?' – Kroos pokes fun at Man City's Aguero statue
The Sergio Aguero statue unveiled by Manchester City on Friday bore an uncanny resemblance to another star of European football.
Toni Kroos had a friendly prod at Manchester City and Sergio Aguero after the Premier League club unveiled a statue in honour of their former striker.
Aguero, who left City last year and has since retired due to a heart condition, is the club's record goalscorer.
On the 10th anniversary of Aguero's last-gasp, title-clinching winner against QPR back in 2012, City unveiled a statue of Aguero's famous celebration.
However, the statue arguably looks more like Real Madrid midfielder Kroos, who picked up on that resemblance.
"Sure?" Kroos tweeted in response to a tweet from BBC Sport journalist Simon Stone, which included a photo of the statue.
It would not be the first time a statue of a player has drawn some ridicule – Cristiano Ronaldo, anyone? – but it may be the first time it has looked so similar to another star name.
