The duo are currently spearheading their national side's attack in the Copa America in Chile and both were on the scoresheet as they drew 2-2 against Paraguay in their opening fixture, with Aguero then scoring the decisive goal in the 1-0 win over Uruguay on Tuesday.
'Of course I have tried to convince Leo to sign for Manchester City, for us to get the best player in the world would have been incredible, but he is so committed to Barcelona,' Aguero said.
I have tried to convince him more than once, but I don't even ask anymore, I know he will not leave.'
After a hard campaign in England which saw City usurped as Premier League champions by Chelsea, Aguero would be forgiven for feeling tired as he competes for international honours with the 2014 World Cup runners-up.
But the 27-year-old insists he is feeling fresh for the tournament in Chile.
'I am not concerned about fatigue at all,' Aguero said. 'Yes it is a long season with the Copa America, but it is always a dream to represent your country, especially when there is a chance to win silverware.
'You look at all the top four in England, they all have players representing nations in the Copa America, and it's not just the top clubs in England. Barcelona, Real Madrid, PSG, Bayern, all those clubs are represented in Chile.
'We will get time off after the tournament and I will be ready to fight for Manchester City in all competitions next season.'
