Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola is happy to send more of his Double winning squad to former club Barcelona this summer.

City pair Eric Garcia and Sergio Aguero will formally become Barca players on July 1 when their Sky Blues deals expire.

And they could be followed by more City players, with the likes of Ilkay Gundogan, Gabriel Jesus and Aymeric Laporte being linked with Barca in recent days.

RAC1 says the speculation is no coincidence, with Guardiola having recently met with Barca president Joan Laporta and sporting director Mateu Alemany.

Guardiola was asked how many players are available from City this summer and who - and while no names have been made public, it's reported the City manager declared "seven" certain senior players can leave.
