The signing of Bernardo Silva at Paris Saint-Germain has been gaining volume in recent days. Not only is Manchester City less greedy, but the English club has probably found a replacement for the Portuguese player.

While PSG have begun a series of announcements, first with the appointment of Luis Enrique, then that of Milan Skriniar, one file focuses all attention, it is Bernardo Silva. For weeks, it has been known that Luis Campos has been working to bring in his Portuguese compatriot, who asked for an exit voucher from Manchester City after the victory in the Champions League final. On Wednesday, Football Insider announced that the Citizens were finally less financially greedy for the former Monegasque, and thata proposal around 60 million euros could be enough to bring Bernardo Silva. However, Pep Guardiola didn’t want to hear of his player’s departure until City found his replacement. The Guardian announces, however, that this time the champion of England has unearthed the nugget he needed in the person of Oscar Gloukh, the Israeli international who plays in Salzburg. The doors therefore open for Bernardo Silva.

The English media obviously evoke the colossal salary offers that would have reached the Portuguese player (47 million euros per year). But, everyone recognized that Paris Saint-Germain still holds the rope, even if a reflection is underway with the player. At this price, we fully understand that Bernardo Silva can ask questions. However, Paris has a major asset in this case, since the player’s wife is much more keen to settle in the French capital than in Saudi Arabia. There is one certainty, it is that at 28 the attacking midfielder wants to move after having won 11 major trophies with Manchester City. On the side of the champions of France, we continue to work hard on this file validated by Luis Enrique, and a first official offer is even ready to leave for the North of England.
