A list of the best free transfers EVER has got fans talking online amid Sergio Aguero‘s stunning move to Barcelona.

Barcelona have officially added Aguero to their squad ahead of the new season and he didn’t cost a penny.

Where does he rank among the best free transfers in history? Well, Jan Aage Fjortoft has him down as the fifth best free signing ever.

The former Premier League footballer-turned-pundit has Robert Lewandowski as the greatest free signing ever following his switch from Borussia Dortmund to Bayern Munich.

He also rates the free transfers of Andrea Pirlo, James Milner and Steve McManaman.

The best free-transfers EVER
in my opinion

1. Lewandowski from Dortmund to Bayern
2. Pirlo from AC Milan to Juventus
3. Milner from Man City to Liverpool
4. McManaman from Liverpool to Real Madrid
5. Aguero from Man City to Barcelona

Yours?

One tweeted: “How about Silva to Chelsea??? Immaculate performances & won the CL. And no offense to Agüero, but he hasn’t even played a game yet for Barça…”

A second wrote: “Pogba from United to Juve. Got him for free and sold him for €100 mill after winning three titles.”

A third added: “Where the f**k is Sol Campbell on this list?”

Another commented: “Pukki from Bröndby to Norwich >>>>”
