Sergio Aguero has disclosed that he had always wanted to join Barcelona since he was a child and did not hesitate to accept their offer.
The Argentina international had earlier been linked with a move to Camp Nou for months before signing a contract with the club on Monday after leaving Manchester City.
The striker says it has been his dream since the age of 14 to join Barca and is delighted to make the return to Spain.
He was quoted saying: “When Barca asked about me, I didn’t even hesitate. I told my agent that I didn’t want him to talk to another team, only Barca.
“It was an immense joy when they contacted my agent. I’ve been interested since I was 14 years old.”
The 32-year-old’s arrival at Camp Nou could see him play alongside his national team-mate Messi.
But the six-time Ballons d’Or winner could still leave the club this summer when his contract expires.
Aguero hopes Messi decides to stay and is optimistic about the chances of that happening.
The former Atletico Madrid star has signed a contract that runs until summer 2023.
