According to reports, the player will leave City when his deal expires at the end of the season, and he has been persistently linked with a move to Catalonia ever since. Few clubs in the English Premier League are also interested in signing the player but Sergio Aguero may be reluctant to sign for a direct rival given his affiliation with Manchester City.

The attacker has decided to return to Spain and continue his ventures in Catalonia, and he has shaken hands on a two-year agreement with the club until the summer of 2023. The report also states that adds that he will take a significant salary hit in order to play for Barcelona alongside compatriot Lionel Messi. He will be paid £4.4m a year compared to the £12m he earns at Man City.
