As it knows the FC Barcelona, from the exit of the Uruguayan Luis Suárez, finds in the research of a forward that light the gunpowder in a trident of attack that needs more goals of which can guarantee you the Argentinian Leo Messi, the one who besides could leave of the Catalan group in next summer, although the efforts of the president of the entity, Joan Laporta, are to avoid it.
In this aim to find the new '9' of the culés, in the scene have appeared two names. The first the one of Memphis Depay, the one who already was near to sign by the Barcelona team the past season and finish agreement in the Olympique of Lyon. The second, is Sergio 'Kun' Agüero, the one who will not renew with the Manchester City and also will remain free.
