Aguero hints at Barcelona move

Asked about his future, Atlético Madrid forward and Argentinian international Sergio 'Kun' Agüero (21) has suggested to journalists that he would like to move to Barcelona in the summer:

"I wish to leave Atlético if they don't strengthen the team so we can compete for the league title next season.

Real Madrid? I certainly won't betray Atlético because they have always treated me very well. If I would join Real Madrid, I would show a lack of respect towards Atlético. Barcelona? Well, hopefully Messi can take me to Barça, but it's a matter of waiting for what the club officials decide."

signing aguero would be much better option than signing ibrahimovic or forlan. i hope he will come to camp nou.

Anonymous said...

I agree,he is much better than those two...but I preffer Villa from Valencia

jordy said...

I already said it in the guardiola has 30m to spend article. let's get him, totally agree with el fuego. villa is 7years older and has less power than aguero! this guy has it all. the only remark I could make is that it isn't a tall player..

barca4life said...

And how much do you think aguero is gonna cost? Lol. Atletico arent just gonna let their star man and best player walk out for free

barca4life said...

His buyout clause was about 55 million and i think atletico would be silly to ask for anything less than that

Manolo said...

Well, he is as midget as Messi!.

I don't know is pep wants him for his lenght!

How is his scoring qualities?

IS he a pure striker or is he a little bit of a Henry?
Like left or right flank player who can score

jordy said...

I like him most in the center.
indeed he's small, but strong, great technique and he pressures the opponents well.
He's also capable of playing the left wing.
40m and the loan of caceres will do!
My only concern is when we get aguero we have a striker for 10years. so what about bojan.. maybe include him in the deal and loan him out to atletico for 2years. and

i was hoping to hear from aguero all these days. i hope it's not just a rumour of the media and this issue could become more detailed. love that guy. he's so young and so talented. his skills and moves reminds me on romario. in many years he is still around > 40 mio euro worth.

Anonymous said...

by the way: were is this news from? couldn't find anything in the english papers...

umessi10 said...

If not Ribery , then i would sign Aguero for the Left Wing position.
Stop with the midget shit already!!
We dont need a tall Strong Left winger. We need a dribbler and technically talented player on the left and Aguero is all that u need. Besides....He is only 21 while Ribery is 26.

albania barcafun said...

AGUEROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO FANTASTIC AT ALL.BEST OPTION YOU CAN EVER FIND TWO MESSIS ON A TEAM WHAT COULD YOU WISH MORE I THINK THAT PEP AND LAPORTA SHOULD DO EVERYTHING TO GET HIM EVEN IF HE COST 60 MILJON EURO HE IS MUCH WORTHER THAN IBRAHIMOVIC AND IS YOUNGER TO .IF YOU TAKE HIM YOU HAVE THE BEST ATTACK ON THE WORLD .TAKE AGUEROOOOOOOOOOOOOO

barca4life said...

But if we buy ageuro for the LW where will gai go? Or should we sell gai wait 4 years and then buy him back for 50 million like we may do with cesc?

skanjos said...

all the talk around these days are about kaka,ibrahimovic and ronaldo,it would be a smart move for use to get silva and aguero now,or silva and villa. i dont think moratti will be willing to sell ibrahimovic for less than 50 mil so its wiser to give such an amount for a younger player like aguero or benzema.we kind of have similar players to aguero ,i would prefer if we got benzema or villa instead but aguero is fine ^^

bojanMKD said...

30M + pedro anyday of the year

inieeeeeeeesta said...

don't think the young guys like bojan and gai should be pampered too much..
they have to proof themselves like everyone else and compete with whatever name comes in.

aguero would be excellent, but only when we can hold eto'o.

we need an immanent world class striker like eto'o or if he goes zlatan/villa

barca4life said...

Do you think messi would have stayed if we had bought ronaldo from man utd instead of giuly and put him on the right wing in 2004? It sends a sign to youngsters if you buy a 21 year old and put that person in their position. It means they have no chance to make the first team essentially. We need to be very careful with our purchases not only for gai, but so that the next player as good as messi in our youth academy doesnt feel like he needs to go elsewhere to get time in the first team. You think any good youngsters want to stay in the real madrid or chelsea academy? They see wild spending and no real focus on their development

Shekhu said...

couldnt agree more b4l..
we dont need those 21-22 year olds.. we already have some great talent in our academy..
like do we need Benzema? no we already have a better striker Bojan who understands our philosophy and is a better prospect.
I'd be fine if we go for Ibra who is a 27 year old and we can churn out his prime football for 2-3 season and by the time Bojan hits top gear.. but Aguero or Benzea a BIG BIG NO.
That is the case with LW too...we dont want someone who blocks the development of Gai..
Trez I mentioned earlier would be an awesome addition to us..he has left 2-3 season of top football in him and he can play as a LW or a striker and has a good header..and its not that his name is coming out of the blue.. we have been interested in him for a long time or so..
The basic idea should be buy players who have 2-3 seasons left in them rather than buy some 21-22 year old and threaten our youngsters..

James said...

Juventus want 20 million for Trezeguet.

Anonymous said...

then we should forget trezeguet. He is not worth more than 10m at his age.

LeónDragón said...

...there we have our new striker...thought they forgot him...the best option there is...young and one of the best...

tero said...

No need to buy Aguero...we have Gai

Anonymous said...

Gai isn't even staring regularly for the youth team, how can he be a star next year? No one can even know that he will be a star in the future. I want Aguero or Benzema here as they are versatile but if Gai is so certain to be a star than never mind.

ira said...

why is no one talking about gourcuff -- he's young and incredibly talented with the ball

Anonymous said...

Gai doesn't even play in Aguero's position. He's also had a season with a lof of injuries.

sashi said...

no thanx Kun... try ur luck elsewhere!

barca4life said...

Messi had a lot of injuries before this season, i suppose we should have also gotten rid of him and get somebody else right? Gourcuff just signed for bordeaux so he isnt going anywhere now. Nobody said gai will be a star next year but if you buy aguero (age 21) for the LW, when will gai play? If you buy somebody who is 27 or 28 like we did with giuly on the RW in 04, it gives gai a chance to be eased into the team like we did with messi. If we buy a 21 year old and put him on the left flank we are essentially telling gai and by extension our youth academy F.U. and he will be off to chelsea or arsenal. And dont think they havent been chasing him because they have since he was 16.

Martin Engelin said...

Barcelona should...
Sell Eto'o, Hleb, Guddy and maybe Pedro.
Buy Aguero and Ribery

Aguero can take Eto'os place, and Ribery plays on the left wing. Henry will be the perfect sub as he can play on CF and LW. Thiago and Gai can be upgraded too the first team, and Gai can take Pedros place (playing a few matches next season). That way he will know that as long as he improves he will get more and more playing time.

If Gai is like Gio Dos Santos, and want to leave becouse he doesn't get any playing time in the best team in the world when he is 18 y.o., then fuck off. We don't need another player like that. Look at Bojan. He didn't get much playing time this season, but he doesn't even want to leave on loan. He's got heart for the club.

Amagine Messi and Aguero playing together. It would be AWESOME! :D

One problem in buying Aguero and Ribery is that Aguero would be the tallest player up front, and he is short. I think that Messi is 169, Xavi and Iniesta 170, Ribery and Bojan 171, and Aguero 172. x)

ZenI said...

ira - I agree about Gourcuff. But it's 'silly season' so there are so many rumours circulating that we are getting confused. But for the CM I would like Xabi, Cesc or Gourcuff - in that order. Why I would like Xabi is because he could play DM also when Yaya is away. He could rotate with Xavi and Iniesta and that would also free up Iniesat to rotate with our left and right wing.
Anyway, I rate Aguero but him in CF and Bojan as backup? We were lucky against Chelsea in the away game, maybe were not be lucky again?! We need more muscles up front or at least a backup that is taller than 163 cm.

Dolce said...

Only the best players are good enough for Barca and nobody should earn a place in the first team just because he is a Barca junior. Pedro, VicSan, Xavi Torres, Jeffren are inferior players and they should never wear Barca shirt ever again. Gai is not Messi and its not clever to expect miracles from players like Gai, Messi was a world star at his age. Barca is not a kindergarten or sanctuary for players like Gai if he is not ready for the big step. Pep has put emotions aside when he has decided who plays and it has worked well, he knew that Bojan aint ready to start more games because if it would have costed too many points. Barca lost huge amounts of points in 07-08 because Rijkaard played often Bojan and Giovanni, mainly due to injuries but still. We should not become too obsessed with our cantera players because we have to use common sense to decide what is best for the team. If sacrificing Bojan or any other player helps the team, then so be it. If Barca´s both wingers are midgets, then the CF must be a powerful busbreaker like Zlatan or Benzema. Bojan is a limited player not only because of his size, but also because he is too indirect and undecisive in front of goal.

Iason said...

I want Aguero at Barcelona. He will be our Fernando Torres! Keep him and Eto'o. But Bojan is not indecisive in front of goal, he is a great passer and a very good finisher for his age.

barca4life said...

Dolce messi was a world star at age 18 really? Because by my calculation when messi was 18 he was coming off the bench mostly for giuly. That was the season we won the champions league in 2006. Messi was a world star then? He started just 15 games for barcelona that season. Doesnt sound like a world star to me. Sounds more like a player being eased into first team action

barca4life said...

Oh and iniesta at age 18 and 19? started a combined total of 11 games, so i guess we should have sold iniesta too right? After all its not a daycare right?

Anonymous said...

Thiago will be eased into the team next season. This is for certain. And we have Muniesa at the back. Abidal compared Botia to Blanc, so maybe Botia has a future in Barcelona as well. We only need a left winger and maybe a busbreaker striker, so there is no need for much buying. The problem if we get busbreaker striker is that we then would have Eto'o, Bojan, busbreaker and Henry who can all play CF. So if we get a busbreaker someone need to leave.

Anonymous said...

please, aguero is really good and he would be a signing for the future. we cant rely only on players like gai and others, especially when real are strengthening themselves like mad. we need to think short term as well. we are not arsenal, building a team of complete youngsters to win the champions league in 2020. aguero is this good at 21, can you imagine him at maybe xavi's age? xavi torres is OLDER than him and he sucks. so i say please, get this guy. better than wasting on ibrahimovich

Amar said...

after the champions league final i wanted ribery and ibra...

now i think aguero and benzema might be better becuz they would be cheaper.

Unknown said...

i want also ribery and ibra + cheap CM + back -up for alves + cheap back up for abidal that's all we need no more than that

Anonymous said...

Aguero would cost 50m and Benzema 40m-50m. It is too much in my opinon. Especially Benzema is not that good.

Just remind you that Forlan scored 32 goals in 32 matches while Aguero scored 17 in 34 matches. Not saying we should get Forlan, but he was much better than Aguero this season.

Unknown said...

Hernanes Felipe Melo and Montolivo would do for the midfield. a backup for Alves won't be hard to find either Saltor Srna would do and for abidal we have Zhirkov Luis Felipe Jansen or Riise that's all our options i would consider bidding + ribery and zlatan

LeónDragón said...

...how can people here always talking bout promoting youth players...that's only working with a solid first team and good back-ups...to say we don't need aguero,because we have the youth sounds,sorry,but dumb to me...who says that gai is strong enough...plays in the 3rd division and that's something completely different...we saw bojan be the best at spains youth,but now hardly able to compete at first league...there are many games and many injuries or other stuff in a whole season...and we need players we can count on and not experimently youth players...what did pedro,x. torres,thiago showed?...nothing,except that they have a long way...we have now players won everything and it's a must to bring new blood in...names like aguero,etc who proved their skills and worth and not count only on youth...youth is good to bring slowly in,but next season will,a 100%,be tougher than the last...everyone will try to prove us,the new campeon or cl winner...and we have to step forward...more games,more competition...to say no to aguero is quite dumb,after we won sometimes lucky and could have the chance to stabilize our team...that's my opinion...take it or leave it,but please do me a favor and stop talking bout manager-b**s*** and get back to reality...even barca-board realized that we must do some on some positions...so stop talking this youth-s***...

SJP said...

spend big on aguero, give gai competition, if we pin all our hpes on him and he flops, we would have missed out on one of the futur greats coz if we don't get him now then an EPL or italian team def will. the cantera players are vtal to our club but they need comptition, they can't just be given places, and besides we've been talking since the end of the season about squad depth, if we have messi, aguero, bojan, pedro, gai, and young, tall striker we would have best forward line in class nd depth for years to come.

inieeeeeeeeesta said...

leondragon and dolce:

you guts are spot on.

barca4life said...

Sigh cant people read? Nobody is saying dont give gai competition or dont buy players, but if you buy a 21 year old to put in gai's position what do you think will happen? He wont get a chance and he will leave. We need to do like what we did with messi, bring in a player like giuly 27, 28 years old that gives gai a chance to develop and come through. And leon yes lets stop developing youth. Take messi xavi iniesta puyol valdes busquets bojan and pique and sell all of them and buy ronaldo ribery ibrahimovic lampard gerrard vidic terry and cech. Congratulaions you are real madrid

Shekhu said...

its ridiculous to say Bojan hasn't been able to compete wit the first league.. we entered the copa final mainly due to his exploits and whenever he played in the league he has performed in-line with what Barca expects from him. And slowly he'll replace the likes of Eto to be our first choice striker.

True, we dont know whether Gai will flop or hit but we surely know he has the potential.. several clubs from England are dying to get his signature...he surely is a talent.

I dont know what realization you're talking about Barca board? I dont think our board is interested in Arguero.. and i dont see Ageuro, a midget strong enough to "break the bus". The player our board has looked to be interested in is Ibra.. and he is an ideal option if our club is looking upto the likes of Bojan and Gai....

wow, an own name, that's brilliant, great argument there!

and to pick a discussion without any substantial meaning, is indeed something a man does (not!)

keep on learning, dumbass

Aussie Barca Fan said...

I think we should buy 'El Kun'. I think Ribery will end up in Madrid along with Kaka, Ronaldo and possibly Ibra. I would take Kun even over Ribery. He is fantastic. My ideal front line would be:

Ribery or Kun - Left
Eto'o or Benzema or Villa in the centre
Messi - Gai on the right

Aussie Barca Fan, it is too many midgets. It won't work and Pep knows it. We need busbreaker.

Aussie Barca Fan said...

I just don't think adding height is the only answer to solving 'The Parking The Bus' tactic against us. The good thing with players like Kun, Messi, Xavi, Iniesta is that they are attacking players who draw out defenders and creat opportunities for each other and the main striker(s) i.e. Eto'o, Henry, Bojan etc.

Bringing in Ibra may give us some height but Henry is also tall and I would favor having him in the central role if Eto'o leaves rather than bringing in Ibra. Adding Kun or Ribery should be a priority on the left to take the pressure off Iniesta and let him focus on midfield.

Where we can improve is our overall SET PIECES. We need to make more use of our tactics particularly with crosses and free kicks.

I just don't think Ibra will provide anything new that Henry can't do. How much more fearsome would it be to have Kun and Messi terrorising defences on the wings, with Iniesta and Xavi cutting inside?? The opposition will pulling their hair out trying to contain 4 matchwinners that opportunities will only increase to score more goals.

Common sense should apply here. Let's not go all out for Ibra when we have bitter and smarter options to get the same result.

Anonymous said...

I agree that we need an older player on the left to encourage gai and bojan to stay with barca and fight for playing time. I have watch many athletico games, and although Kun is good, he is not close to ribery's level, and I think that bojan/gai both will be better than him. I think we should spend our money buying a new left back (abidal as backup)- I personally would like maxwell, a centermidfielder, like hernanes, or moutino or promote thiago, and then a tall CF like Ibra, if pep can motivate him, or llorente or dzesko.

Garrett

Bojan said...

I agree with Aussie. Henry can play in the middle while Eto'o is away on international duty. Kun will add spark to the left.

We have to improve our set pieces to add another dimension to teams playing anti-football.
