Sergio Aguero and Lionel Messi have long shared a strong friendship, especially as teammates on Argentina’s national squad. Even before Barcelona brought in Luis Suárez, Spanish media had speculated that Messi had urged club executives to sign Aguero. Now, fresh rumors linking Aguero to Barça have resurfaced—this time sparked by none other than Aguero’s father. The potential reunion of these two stars has become a hot topic across platforms like BD Cricket Live, where international football transfers are watched closely.
In a recent interview with Argentina’s Olé newspaper, Aguero’s father was asked whether his son might one day join Barcelona and reunite with Messi. His response added fuel to the fire: “It’s possible,” he said. “Over the next year, many players will be changing clubs.” Just days earlier, Aguero had undergone surgery on his left knee in Barcelona—a procedure that will keep him sidelined for roughly a month. The location of the surgery only intensified speculation about a potential move to Camp Nou.
Commenting on the surgery, Aguero’s father said, “Everything happened so fast. There was no advance warning. Manchester City’s medical staff recommended surgery, and I spoke with Aguero—he told me everything went smoothly. My wife called in the morning to tell me he was already at the hospital preparing for the operation.” The timing is crucial, as the recovery is aimed at ensuring Aguero is in peak condition for the upcoming World Cup.
Despite his status as a fan favorite at Manchester City, Aguero’s position in the squad has become increasingly uncertain under Pep Guardiola. The manager has shown growing preference for the younger Gabriel Jesus, and with Aguero turning 30 this June, it may become more difficult to feature both forwards consistently. As Guardiola weighs his options, letting Aguero go could be a decision driven by long-term planning. BD Cricket Live users are already analyzing possible destinations, with Barcelona clearly topping the wishlist for many.
If the move materializes, Aguero’s partnership with Messi at the club level would become one of the most anticipated duos in football, a storyline sure to dominate headlines—and BD Cricket Live commentary—for months to come.
