Pep Guardiola gives the worst news to Barcelona regarding Bernardo Silva's signing

For a long time, Xavi Hernández has stated in the Barcelona offices that he is very interested in having Bernardo Silva. The Spanish coach sees him as a world-class player with an incredible ability to make his teammates better. For this reason, Barça tried to sign him this summer.

The offer prepared by the Barça team was 65 million plus 10 in variables for the transfer, although this option is almost ruled out, since Barça needs to carry out a similar sale and it is not in the plans today nor did they receive proposals. For the Portuguese, he offered an adequate salary for the financial Fair Play, but that he would progress in the coming seasons.

The most feasible thing that the Blaugrana saw was an assignment with a purchase option. However, it must be said that everything said above will be suspended. This Saturday Fabrizio Romano advanced him and assured that Manchester City is planted in not letting him go, beyond the word of Josep Guardiola. The Citizens take care of his assets and want to improve the contract for the Portuguese.

There are no intentions to negotiate

The managers of Manchester do not want to negotiate with Barcelona or with Paris Saint-Germain. Their objective is to update Bernardo's contract so that he can stay at least until the summer of 2027, since his current bond ends in the summer of 2025. In addition, the minimum they would accept for his transfer would be 80 million, something that the Barça cannot pay today.
