Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has leaked that Argentine striker Sergio Aguero is near to signing a deal with Spanish club Barcelona. Aguero played his final Premier League game for Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium on Sunday and he ended up scoring two goals after coming in as a replacement. “Maybe I reveal a secret. Maybe he is close to agreeing a deal for the club of my heart — for Barcelona. He is going to be playing alongside the best player of all time, Messi,” Guardiola told BBC, as reported by Goal.com

“I’m pretty sure he is going to enjoy. And maybe Barcelona are stronger and stronger with him on the pitch,” he added.
