Manchester City transfer news: Barca steal march on Citizens star ...Middle East

Before the upcoming transfer windows, FC Barcelona are taking action with Deco at the helm to sign a key player from Manchester City.

Bernardo Silva entered his final year of contract with Manchester City this summer. The Portuguese midfielder or winger thus finds himself highly courted. He could turn his back on Juventus and Benfica, who have been courting him for a few weeks, whilst he is also in the sights of Saudi Arabia with a more interesting financial proposal.

Sky Blues captain this season, the 31-year-old player is a stalwart of the Manchester club, who would surely like to keep him. However, no progress seems to have taken place. Bernardo Silva opened up about his future recently, but left the suspense complete by declaring: “I know exactly what I am going to do, but it is not the time to talk about it.”

Recruiting the former AS Monaco player is FC Barcelona's dream. The Catalan club have been interested in his profile for many years. According to information from Caught Offside, the Blaugrana have already launched this matter well and Deco is targeting a free arrival in 2026 of Bernardo Silva.

Manchester City's position not yet known in this matter

The Portuguese sporting director considers his compatriot as an ideal reinforcement for Hansi Flick with his great technical quality. However, this arrival depends on Manchester City's willingness to keep him beyond his contract or not. If a contract extension is not on the agenda, the English giant could also consider selling Bernardo Silva this winter so as not to lose him for free six months later. In any case, Deco has taken the lead in this matter and has already made contact with the Portuguese playmaker's representatives. Juventus are also active, even if the Portuguese international's salary could pose a problem. Caught Offside also mention the interest of three Saudi clubs, Al Ahli, Al Qadsiah and Al Nassr, who are ready to offer an enormous salary to Bernardo Silva.
