Despite the fact that it is the most 'impossible' signing, financially speaking, at FC Barcelona they are reluctant to rule out Bernardo Silva. Xavi Hernández would have contacted him recently to "ask him" to wait

Calendar of FC Barcelona

The name of Bernardo Silva has too time in the diary of the FC Barcelona, but at all times has remained clear that his incorporation is an impossible dream by all the economic difficulties and of the Fair Play financial. However, with the imminent exit of Ousmane Dembélé with destination to the Paris Saint-Germain the history can change drastically. The folder of the Portuguese goes back to be open, as long as they exist real options to negotiate with the Manchester City.

Of agreement to an information of the journalist Gerard Romero, in 'Jijantes', recently Xavi Hernández has gone back to contact to the player of 28 years in the last hours. It has asked him that it expect to know if it exists the possibility that the Barça bet by his signing, promising him that will do all the possible so that it turn into Barcelona player this same summer. It would be the first step to concretise his incorporation, although from the club have recognised in infinity of opportunities that is very complicated. This time will not be the exception.

The trainer egarense always has wanted to Silva in his team, because it understands that it is the complement perfect and a player that can surrender so much in the centre of the field as in a more advanced position. It is one of the most complete midfield players of Europe and sees him like the ideal mate for Pedri González, because it is an authentic 'jugón'. With Ilkay Gundogan, the three would conform the mediocentro dreamed for Xavi.

The Manchester City, the big problem for the Barça

In spite of the increasing interest of the blaugrana by Bernardo, is not a simple operation in no sense. It is necessary to begin remembering that the Manchester City has priced it in, at least, 80 million euros. It is a very high price and that from the Barça would not have capacity to assume, but is not the only problem... Because from the Etihad Stadium resist to leave it go out this summer. Pep Guardiola considers him a key piece in his approach.

It is thus that, as it comes informing in the last weeks, the English only would pose the option that it go out in case that the own footballer communicate that it wants to leave. Something that, for the moment, has not happened. In case that it was like this, will ask that they credit the 80 'kilos'. It is a labyrinth with few exits, because in the meantime from the team of the 'sky blues' have not detained his efforts to renew his agreement further of the summer of 2025.
