The Catalans are interested in the Argentine forward for free in June

Barcelona are interested in Man City striker Sergio Aguero on a free transfer this summer but only if he will accept reduced terms, given their financial state is perilous. They must work to reduce their wage bill.

Aguero will leave City, where he is barely featuring, and they are looking for a replacement already - with Haaland and Kane linked.

Aguero has spoken to Laporta’s people in recent weeks and both sides are studying the viability of him coming to Barcelona.

Currently he gets 15 million net per season which Barcelona absolutely cannot pay. The player is conscious of his age too, and the chance to play alongside his friend Messi at Barca, and is willing to talk, but Barca think he has to come a long way down to negotiate.

His age and physical condition is a handicap, but in any case, there is no offer yet. Ronald Koeman would like Memphis Depay if he had a choice.
