It is with Harry Kane the flagship rookie that PSG wants to pay for this summer. But Bernardo Silva was announced close to Saudi Arabia on Wednesday. A doubly tempered information.
Still without a coach, even if only Luis Enrique is now expected for this position, Paris SG is struggling to move forward on the transfer market. There is no fire yet, but the announcement of certain signatures would reassure the supporters. For some, it’s just a matter of time, and even timing. For large maneuvers, it is as often much more complicated. This is the case in the Bernardo Silva case, who announced his desire to leave Manchester City this summer. He has won everything with the English club, and plans to discover a new club, with an even more important player status. This ambition, PSG can fulfill it perfectly, with men he knows like Luis Campos and Kylian Mbappé, a star salary and all the same big sporting ambitions.
Bernardo Silva at the top and in Saudi Arabia?
Even if FC Barcelona were eyeing the Portuguese, PSG clearly had a head start until Wednesday, when Marca announced that Bernardo Silva was cracking on an offer made by Al-Hilal, and which put all European clubs far behind. The Saudi club, which had tried everything to bring in Lionel Messi, thus pulled out all the stops to afford a player far from the end of his career, and among the best in Europe. An earthquake that would in any case hurt PSG very much, which saw itself presenting the former AS Monaco as a star rookie of the summer.

But hope quickly returned to Paris due to the speaking out of transfer window specialists, who stressed that absolutely nothing had been done. ” Bernardo Silva has not made any final decision on his future. PSG considers Bernardo Silva as its priority target and Saudi clubs are forcing it. Barca are struggling with Financial Fair Play. The decision rests with Bernardo, but negotiations with City will be difficult as they still hope to convince him to stay “, delivered Fabrizio Romano, the informant confirmed in his remarks by Foot Mercato. “ Last I heard, he didn’t want to go “, even explains the French site, for whom Bernardo Silva was really not hot to join Saudi Arabia. It remains to be seen whether the latest discussions have been decisive and have been able to change the Portuguese player’s mind, who would obviously benefit from an incredible contract if he were to commit to Al-Hilal.
