Former Manchester City striker, Sergio Agüero, will play in The Soccer Tournament, the 7-on-7, $1 million, winner-take-all event this summer.
The tournament will be played from June 5-10 in Cary, North Carolina.
“We are ecstatic to welcome Sergio and his team to this year’s field.
“Not only is he one of the best players of all time, but he’s also one of the fiercest competitors ever.
“He’s coming to Cary to have fun and compete, which is exactly what TST is all about,” TST founder and CEO Jon Mugar said in a statement.
Agüero, 35, retired in 2021 after he had moved to Barcelona.
The Argentine was forced to hang up his boots, following an incident in which he was substituted during a match with Alavés due to chest pains.
