Sergio Aguero 'flew to Spain straight after Manchester City's Champions League final defeat by Chelsea to complete Barcelona free transfer' as striker closes in on joining Argentine legend Lionel Messi at the Nou Camp

Sergio Aguero travelled to Barcelona directly from Manchester City's Champions League final loss in Porto to complete a free transfer to the Catalans, according to reports.

City's all-time record goalscorer was a second-half substitute for Pep Guardiola's side in their 1-0 defeat to Chelsea on Saturday night, which was settled by Kai Havertz's first-half goal at the Estadio do Dragao.

The Champions League final was Aguero's final game for City after a decade of service, with Aguero ending his career for the Premier League champions with 260 goals in 390 games.
