It is still a while until the summer transfer window begins, but clubs are now beginning to make plans for the transfer window. Laporta is clear that Barca need an attacker and their favourite is Aguero.
Aguero's contract at City expires in June. Therefore, he could go to the Camp Nou for free.
The Argentine would be delighted to play for Barca, according to 'Mundo Deportivo'. That is what his agent has reportedly told Laporta as well as Font, one of the other presidential candidates.
But, for that to happen, Aguero would have to take a pay cut. That would not be a problem, according to the Catalan paper. The Argentine would be willing to reduce his salary.
That said, to sign, Aguero has asked for one thing. 'Mundo Deportivo' says that the attacker has asked for a transfer bonus to sign. That is the City footballer's only request.
The other area of the pitch Laporta wants to have well covered is the central defender position. The new Barca president wants that position for David Alaba and everything seems to indicate that, if they want to buy him, they will have to fight with Real Madrid.
