Not happening imo. No one is paying that release clause and its hard to see Barcelona selling him for a sensible amount of money. If it is going to happen it will be next year when his contract runs out and he can leave on a free. Even then it is highly unlikely, can't see a 33/34 year old wanting to move to another club when he has spent his entire career at Barca.
Didn't Xavi, Iniesta, Valdés and Guardiola all do exactly that?

Ah yes, but they had the allure of a random Saudi team, a random Japanese team, the rags reserves and the mighty Brescia to tempt them, instead of one of the best teams on the planet and his mentor in charge
 
The way I see it, even if we were to say he's fading, his level has been so far ahead of every other player on the planet he will still comfortably be the best around for another 2 years at least.
The only reason we don't make this signing is if the figures don't add up and we can't make it work financially.
On a purely footballing point of view we would be all over it.
he's not the best player in the world now and certainly he will not be so over the next 2 years.

You guys look at football with backward looking eyes. Think back to the Bayern game last week. It was extraordinarily open and yet he was completely unable to influence it.
