The visit of Bernardo Silva
The mediocampista Portuguese is the big aim of the Barça in this window estival. Xavi Hernández considers that the lisboeta would be the 'jewel' of the 'crown' in his sportive project, by what from the dispatches of the Camp Nou follow studying his options to do with the services of the player. The culés expected that the luso contested this party dressing of blaugrana, but the 'citizens' have showed 'reacios' to give off of one of his maximum figures and, to day of today, his signing is almost impossible although the barcelonistas do not lose the hope.
Xavi vs Pep
The meeting between Catalans and mancunianos will mark the first crossing between the student and his teacher. Xavi and Guardiola shared changing room during 4 seasons, during which did with all the possible titles. The one of Sampedor was a big influence for the egarense, the one who offered his best years like Barcelona player under the orders of the trainer of the City.

Besides, the new goleador of the City was the main candidate to reinforce the leading culé at the beginning of this year, but when choosing to the 'skyblues', 'Lewan' was the elected by the Catalans, by what the 'morbo' is more alive that never.
Eric and Ferran against his ex team
On the other hand, Eric García and Ferran Torres reencontrarán with his ex team after both footballers decided to abandon the Etihad Stadium to head to the City Condal. The agreement of canterano blaugrana expired the past summer, but in place to renew with the 'citizens' this decided to return to 'house'. In the meantime, the forward did not have the opportunities wished under the orders of Pep and took the determination to join to the rows of Xavi, the one who is his big valedor in Can Barça.
First proof of 'fire'
Finally, the party in front of the Manchester City represents the first opportunity for the Barça to measure in front of one of the biggest clubs of Europe. Up to now, the culés have seen the faces with the Ray Vallecano, against the one who could not happen of the tie, and the Real Sociedad, to the one who won with forcefulness after suffering in the first part. Now, in front of the 'skyblues' will look for to keep the good feelings and will be able to observe the performance of the barcelonistas in front of one of the powers of the continent.
