A Spanish press report revealed, today, Saturday, that the Portuguese Bernardo Silva, the Manchester City star, is awaiting a decision from Barcelona regarding his possible transfer to the Catalan team
Barcelona tried to include Silva last summer, but did not reach an agreement with Manchester City, while the Citizens are trying to renew his contract
According to the Catalan newspaper “Sport”, Bernardo gives priority to Barcelona over renewing his contract at the Etihad Stadium, but he wants to know the position of the Catalan team early, and whether he still wants to include him, or has he dismissed the deal
She added that Silva is one of the dreams of Xavi Hernandez, Barcelona coach, who insisted on joining him last summer, but things depended on selling Dutchman Frenkie de Jong first
Barcelona president Juan Laporta announced that his club will not conclude any new contracts next January, and therefore talk of any deal will be postponed to next summer
Bernardo’s contract with Manchester City ends in the summer of 2025, but the player has expressed his willingness to reduce his salary in order to move to play at Camp Nou
