Samuel Eto’o believes Lionel Messi and Sergio Aguero can score tonnes of goals at Barcelona
Sergio Aguero recently joined Barcelona from Manchester City. The Catalan giants signed the Argentine forward on a free transfer this summer.
Samuel Eto’o believes the pair of Lionel Messi and Aguero could score 60 goals in the coming season if they remain fit. He said:
Barcelona have strengthened their attack for next season. Apart from Sergio Aguero, the Blaugrana have also signed Netherlands star Memphis Depay from Ligue 1 side Olympique Lyonnais on a free transfer.
The only concern Barcelona now have is Lionel Messi’s contract. The 33-year-old will be a free agent in a week’s time. However, the club hierarchy are convinced that Messi will sign a new two-year deal, keeping him at the Nou Camp until 2023.
