The 32-year-old has spent the past nine and a half years in
the Premier League with the Citizens, but with only six months remaining on his
current contract, he is now able to negotiate a move away from the Etihad for
free.
That could force Man City into action, with the forward
still waiting to see whether his current club will offer him an extended deal
beyond this season.
A move to Barcelona would give Aguero the chance to play in
Spain once more after he spent five years at rivals Atletico Madrid at the
start of his career. His clinical displays led Man City to pay £35m to sign the
Argentine in 2011, and he has gone on to be one of the club's best ever pieces
of business.
He is now the all-time leading goalscorer for the Citizens,
and his goals have fired them to four Premier League titles, and a host of
domestic trophies. Aguero is undoubtedly a club legend, but whether that is
enough for Man City to extend his stay remains to be seen.
The former Atleti man has struggled with a series of fitness
issues this year, restricting him into making only five league appearances, and
he has failed to find the back of the net in any of his outings.
His misfortune has continued into 2021, as he will miss the
home clash with Brighton on Wednesday, having come into close contact with a
coronavirus carrier. He will now be forced to self-isolate for just over a
week.and could make a move in January to secure his services for six months
time.
La Blaugrana may have some competition to fend off, however,
with Mauricio Pochettino and Paris Saint-Germain also rumoured to be interested
in signing the striker.
