Aguero hoping for Messi partnership

Wish could yet be scuppered if the Barca legend doesn’t renew

Sergio Aguero said on Monday that he was hoping to have the “pleasure” of playing alongside Lionel Messi after signing a two-year deal with Barcelona. However he is still not sure that Messi will be his teammate next season as the club captain is yet to sign an extension to his current contract which expires next month. “Let’s hope we play together ... what happens with Leo is down to decisions that he will make with the club,” Aguero told reporters at the Camp Nou after he was unveiled on the famous pitch.
