Bernardo Silva would agree to Barcelona move, Manchester City put a huge price tag on the Portuguese star
The Portuguese midfielder is as we know one of the great desires that the Catalan squad has for next season. A player who now gains room to land in the culé club.
Silva, 27, was one of Guardiola’s standout performers last season and played a key role in City’s successful Premier League title. He made 50 appearances in all competitions, scoring 13 times, and was named in the PFA Premier League Team of the Year.

Sport reports that, the azulgrana team has the approval of this player. He has accepted the proposal of the azulgrana squad, so that now the Catalans would only have to negotiate with Manchester City, not an easy move in this case to fulfill their great desire.
A move for Silva could depend on whether the club is able to raise funds from the potential sale of De Jong. United remain in negotiations to sign the Netherlands international, who played under Erik ten Hag during their time together at Ajax.
Huge asking price for Silva
The fact that the Portuguese has taken the first step is a good starting point for the Catalans, who dream of this player as the leader of their midfield. However, the Etihad Stadium team will ask no less than 100 million euros for the player.
The Barcelona team, on the other hand, does not want to spend more than 40 million euro, and will enter the bid with the player's approval, who will have to press as Robert Lewandowski does on Bayern. For now he has conveyed his intentions to Pep Guardiola, which is a good start.
