According to reports, Bernardo Silva, a forward for Manchester City, has offered his services to Barcelona.
According to Jijantes FC’s £43 million (BBC Sport) star, who recently admitted that he is still unsure of his future at the Etihad Stadium, this statement is made by journalist Gerard Romero.
Now, it appears that Bernardo Silva, a favourite of Manchester City supporters, has informed Barcelona of his desire to join them this summer.
Bernardo Silva has offered to join Barcelona, according to Gerard Romero.
The Portuguese international, who Pep Guardiola has dubbed as “special,” has been constantly linked with moves elsewhere for the past two summer transfer windows.
For instance, in addition to Xavi’s team, Al Hilal appear interested in signing the 28-year-old, and the player has reportedly given the club the go-ahead to begin negotiations.
In a similar vein, PSG is reportedly interested in signing the triple champion as part of their summer rebuild.
In an effort to finally leave Manchester City, Gerard Romero has now revealed that Bernardo Silva has offered himself to Barcelona.
Deals are thought to be impossible, though, because the Spanish powerhouses are still strapped for cash, as they were last summer.
After a point, Manchester City should barricade an exit.
Manchester City is anticipated to approve the transfer of Bernardo Silva if Barcelona is able to secure the funds to do so soon.
After all, it is widely known that if a player considers leaving City, he may do so without hesitation so long as the club receives a satisfactory transfer fee from the potential suitor.
However, given that the Sky Blues’ preseason will start later this month, it would be wise to obstruct any club that is interested in signing Bernardo Silva for a number of reasons if a deal cannot be reached quickly.
First things first: it is by no means ideal to bring in a replacement for one of the team’s most crucial players so quickly.
Any new player who is hired to replace Bernardo should also be given enough time to pick up Pep Guardiola’s methods.
The club’s top priority should always be to avoid approving of any action that could hinder their progress, so while City’s sales policy is commendable, they occasionally need to put their foot down and block certain moves.
