Priority target of PSG, Bernardo Silva seemed inclined to join the Parisian ranks in the event of an exit voucher issued by his Manchester City club. But the Spanish press rather evokes FC Barcelona.
He is one of the most coveted men of this summer transfer window. Winner of the Champions League with Manchester City a little over a month ago, Bernardo Silva would like to see something else. Mancunian player for six seasons, the Portuguese no longer hides his desires elsewhere. Several teams are in the running and in particular a Paris Saint-Germain which seemed to hold the rope in the event of the player’s departure. But now on the side of Spain, a different sound is heard: Bernardo Silva would like to wear the Barça jersey.
Information that is not necessarily stunning when we remember that the former AS Monaco had been on the verge of signing up with FC Barcelona in the summer of 2022. But the insistent rumors evoking discussions between Jorge Mendes, Bernardo Silva’s agent, and Luis Campos, PSG football adviser, suggested that the case was on the right track. It is Mundo Deportivo who therefore put a stop to all this by writing on Saturday that the Lusitanian international was waiting for Barça to take a step towards him, and to do so quickly.
He continues to dream of Barça
The Iberian media even went so far as to say that Silva ” keep dreaming about wearing the Barça shirt“, adding that the latter has” stopped any other proposal while waiting to see what could happen with Barça“. However, PSG is still in the race, as is Saudi Arabia, which hopes to achieve yet another big blow. Manchester City will also have a say, especially because Pep Guardiola does not want to lose a part of his squad, even if he gave his player an exit voucher. Everything is more open than ever for Bernardo Silva.
