According to reports, BERNARDO Silva texted Barcelona's management pleading for them to sign him.
Bernardo, 27, wanted to leave Manchester City last summer to be nearer to his family, but under Pep Guardiola, he went on to have another fantastic season.
According to reports, Bernardo texted Barcelona's managers appealing for a transfer to the Nou Camp.
The elusive midfielder is now reportedly pressing for a transfer to Spain, according to Mundo Deportivo.
When agents from Barcelona were in Manchester last season to complete the transfer of Ferran Torres, the star chatted with them.
Before Bernardo sent a series of TEXT messages, they believed he was making a joke.
According to the source, the athlete is "bent" on joining Xavi's squad.
Jorge Mendes, his representative, "confirmed his client's wish" to sign with Joan Laporta, the president of Barca.
"Numerous meetings" have taken place between Bernardo and Mendes and representatives of the Catalan club.
His Man City contract is set to end in 2025.
The playmaker refused to answer inquiries about whether he would quit after representing his nation during the international break.
Bernardo said "Unfortunately, I won't be able to respond since I will be serving the national team and will be very preoccupied with the remaining game.
"We'll see what happens when the season is over."
Bernardo will begin the season with the Premier League champions, barring any unforeseen circumstances.
Barcelona received a self-offer from Bernardo Silva.
Bernardo Silva is a fantastic athlete who undoubtedly possesses "Barcelona DNA."
He has worked well with Pep Guardiola at Manchester City, but every summer the Portuguese winger tends to toy with the idea of leaving the team, and last summer he was essentially on the market.
He ultimately stayed and was crucial to City's victory in another championship.
However, according to Mundo Deportivo, he was actively seeking to leave by January. Silva is said to have made himself available to the team as a potential future transfer when Barcelona and City bargained for the transfer of Ferran Torres in January.
The funds are the issue, as they always are with Barcelona this summer. They could want him, but they won't be able to get a deal done unless they sell a lot of guys.
It seems inevitable, although he might need to play in the Premier League for another season beforehand.
