Manchester City will not stand in the way of Bernardo Silva if he wants to join Barcelona, who will need to pay €80 million to secure his services.
According to a report by Spanish publication Mundo Deportivo, Barcelona’s hopes of signing Bernardo Silva from Manchester City have risen. The Premier League champions will not stand in the Portuguese playmaker’s way if he wants to leave. But the Blaugrana will need to fork out €80 million to sign the player.
Bernardo Silva has gone from strength to strength since joining Manchester City from AS Monaco. While the 28-year-old has not always been a regular starter for the Citizens, he has managed to be a top contributor on the pitch. But he has been a pivotal figure for Manchester City in the last 18 months.
The Portuguese international is enjoying a solid 2022/23 campaign, chipping in with two goals and five assists in 22 appearances. But Silva’s Manchester City future remains up in the air, as it was in the summer transfer window. And Barcelona will look to secure his services in a transfer window in 2023.
Barcelona had been keen on signing the 28-year-old playmaker from Manchester City in the summer transfer window. But a move did not materialise as the Premier League champions stuck to their guns. However, the interest in Silva has not waned, with the Blaugrana still pursuing him.
While Frenkie de Jong now seems settled again at Spotify Camp Nou, Barcelona will likely enter the market for a midfield reinforcement. With Sergio Busquets approaching the end of his glittering career, the Catalan giants need to scour the market for a midfielder. But Silva might be an option to reinforce the offensive unit.
Memphis Depay and Ferran Torres face uncertain futures at Camp Nou. Silva might be a viable replacement if the duo departs. And Barcelona’s hopes of signing the Portuguese playmaker have risen as Manchester City might let him leave if he wants a new challenge. But Barcelona will need to cough up €80 million to secure his services.
Meanwhile, Manchester City will soon open talks over a new contract with Silva. They will ascertain the player’s intentions in that meeting before taking a call on his future. It will be interesting to see if the 28-year-old earns a move worth €80 million to Barcelona next year.
