Priority target of Paris Saint-Germain, Bernardo Silva arouses the interest of a Saudi club which is ready to splurge. The representatives of the Portuguese star have just met the emissaries of this club and the PSG still does not move.
Bernardo Silva requested and obtained an exit voucher during this transfer window, even if Pep Guardiola hopes to be able to convince him to stay a little longer. But, after having won everything with Manchester City, the Portuguese attacking midfielder wants to discover something else. Among the clubs mentioned to welcome him, there are Paris Saint-Germain and FC Barcelona, even if Barça does not really have the financial means for its ambitions. However, a new track has opened up in recent weeks and it is obviously the one that leads to Saudi Arabia.
Al-Hilal insists on Bernardo Silva
At 28, Bernardo Silva does not yet want to play in the Saudi Pro League, but ESPN affirms that its agents have again met in recent days with the emissaries of Al-Hilal. The latter would have offered a salary of 585,000 euros per week to the Manchester City player, three times what he currently receives. We are far from the million euros mentioned by the tabloids, but inevitably this can make the number 10 of the Portugal team think. Especially since at the same time, the PSG does not move at all, specifies the Anglo-Saxon media.

ESPN journalist Rob Dawson says that although Paris Saint-Germain are enthusiastic about the possible arrival of Bernardo Silva, no offers have been made to the player and to Manchester City. In recent days, the English tabloids claimed that the Portuguese midfielder could be sold at a price lower than the 80 million euros mentioned. But it doesn’t matter in the end since Nasser Al-Khelaifi and Luis Campos are focusing on the Kylian Mbappé file and its impact on the Parisian transfer window, at the risk of seeing priority number 1 give way to Saudi sirens or extend to Manchester City. The English champions have not quite given up on the idea of extending the contract of the one who is still linked for two years with the Cityzens.
