Lionel Messi is committed to Barcelona, once again. And now, it seems the acquisition of his long-time pal, Sergio Aguero has influenced this one.
You saw this coming, particularly after beIN Sports journalist Achraf Ben Ayad leaked it recently that the six-time Ballon d’Or holder have agreed to stay on. Was never in doubt, so there you have it.
However, it seems his commitment to the Catalan course has something to do with Kun, who joined just a day before this news took media center stage.
“Obviously, it would be a pleasure and it would make me very proud to play together,” Aguero was quoted as saying in his presentation ceremony.
“I’ve played with him in the [Argentina] national team since we were kids, I know him quite well and I hope we can play together here.”

So we’re set to see a Messi-Aguero combination more often. Probably, La Liga isn’t prepared for this deadly combo.
Either way, Messi is staying on at Barcelona to play with Aguero next season.
