Despite Barcelona's efforts to force a transfer, Manchester does not have a firm commitment to hold onto Bernardo Silva.
According to Spanish reports, if Barcelona can come up with the money, the Citizens will accept a bid of about £68 million.
The Mirror, however, assures that Etihad executives would reject any offers for the 27-year-old Portuguese playmaker as Pep Guardiola strives to win his fifth Premier League crown in six seasons.
Silva has 57 goal commitments in 166 first-class games for the Citizens, and he has frequently helped them finish first.
Despite being in a precarious financial situation, Barca has been splashing the cash as Robert Lewandowski is close to joining former Leeds star Raphinha at the Camp Nou.
They haven't completed yet, and if Manchester United successfully negotiates a deal to get Frenkie de Jong, they could generate additional funds.
Nevertheless, despite acquiring Erling Haaland and Kalvin Phillips for a combined £100 million, City is not under any pressure to sell because they gained a lot from flogging Raheem Sterling and Gabriel Jesus.
Oleksandr Zinchenko may also be going, as the Guardian reports that the Ukrainian and Arsenal are in negotiations over personal conditions following the conclusion of a £30 million deal between the two teams.
