Man City set Bernardo Silva price tag as Barcelona & PSG eye summer transfer
According to 90min, Manchester City are prepared to allow Bernardo Silva to leave the club this summer if he wishes, but only for the right price. The Portuguese midfielder was eager to move to Barcelona last summer, but City refused to let him leave. Barcelona reportedly remains interested in signing Silva, who has also caught the eye of Paris Saint-Germain. However, Silva is said to be focused on joining Barcelona if he decides to leave Manchester City.
Pep Guardiola has made it clear that he does not want to keep players who do not want to play for the club, despite Silva's importance to the team. The club's position is that they will not block Silva's departure if he decides he wants to leave, but they will demand a fee that reflects his market value, which is currently estimated at around £75 million.
Barcelona are said to be monitoring a number of potential signings this summer, including City midfielder Ilkay Gundogan, who could be available as a free agent if he does not agree to a new deal with City. However, their priority remains Lionel Messi, and they are working on a deal to keep the Argentine superstar at the Camp Nou.
Barcelona may have to sell players in order to raise funds for any summer signings, which could make it difficult for them to secure Silva's services. While they could potentially sell players such as Frenkie de Jong or Ousmane Dembele, it is not clear whether they will be able to raise enough money to meet City's valuation of Silva.
If Barcelona cannot reach an agreement for Silva, he is unlikely to push for a move away from City, and the Premier League champions have not ruled out the possibility of offering him a new contract. It remains to be seen whether Barcelona will be able to raise the funds necessary to sign Silva, or if City will lower their asking price.
