Bayern Munich ace Franck Ribery has agreed personal terms with Barcelona, it has been revealed. El Mundo Deportivo says Ribery, through his representatives, has settled on the length and size of his contract with Barca. Sources say the deal is for four years and will make the Frenchman the best paid player at the Nou Camp.

Ribery is the man Barca coach Pep Guardiola wants, though sports director Txiki Begiristain still faces a tough task convincing Bayern to part with their star man.
