According to Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano, Aguero is expected in Barcelona this morning to complete a medical.
The Argentine striker is believed to have already signed a two-year deal at the Nou Camp, joining close pal Lionel Messi.
The current Barcelona skipper is yet to confirm his future but is expected to sign a new contract at the club after Joan Laporta became president in March.
Messi and Aguero have scored an incredible 766 league goals between them during their illustrious careers and would make an excellent strike force if the Spanish giants can get the deals done.
Today’s rumours come just hours after City’s European upset in Porto, with Aguero left in tears as Chelsea secured a 1-0 victory in the Champions League final.
The striker’s younger brother Mauricio del Castillo has launched a scathing attack at manager Guardiola, claiming the City boss ‘never wanted’ the player.

Barcelona are also believed to be close to signing another City player – defender Eric Garcia – with a deal set to be announced shortly.
The 20-year-old’s contract at the Etihad expires this summer and he is not expected to sign an extension.
And Barcelona are reportedly closing in on out-of-contract Liverpool midfielder Georginio Wijnaldum.
The 30-year-old, who featured in every Premier League game this season, is not expected to remain at Anfield beyond the summer.
Barcelona are looking to improve the squad after finishing third in LaLiga, with another free agent – Lyon winger Memphis Depay – linked with the club.
