Manchester City striker Sergio Aguero is discussing with Spanish La Liga club Barcelona in a bid to move to the club as he moves closer to the end of his contract at the Etihad Stadium with Manchester City
The 32-year-old Argentinian striker is Manchester City’s highest and record goalscorer as well as the highest-scoring overseas player in the Premier League.
