The Portuguese midfielder, wanted by Barcelona for the current transfer window.

The situation of Bernardo Silva is still, as of today, a mystery that I would bet is about to be resolved unless there is a major surprise, and the fact is that the exorbitant price that Manchester City has set for him makes it difficult for the Portuguese player to leave the club. While it is true that 80 million euros was already a very high price, clubs of great caliber could aspire to rethink his signing in view of the Portuguese player's desire to change his career.

Both FC Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain are the main teams that have shown interest for the Manchester City midfielder. The fact is that the ‘Citizen’ team has raised the price of their star to 100 million euros. According to The Athletic, they will ignore offers that do not reach the aforementioned amount, which clearly leaves the Portuguese in a very complicated position when it comes to being able to leave.

It is worth remembering that the contacts between Barcelona and Silva began weeks ago, when the representative of the skillful midfielder, also Portuguese Jorge Mendes, informed president Joan Laporta that the Portuguese midfielder is willing to move to Barcelona for the 2022-23 season.
