DBasia.news – Bernardo Silva’s desire to immediately leave Manchester City and head to Barcelona seems to have been canceled. Reportedly, the Blaugrana have stopped targeting the Portuguese player.
Silva has entered Barcelona’s target list this summer. El Barca coach, Xavi Hernandez really admires his quality.
Tempted by Barcelona offer, Silva asked Manchester City’s permission to leave. However, he still has three years remaining on his contract.
Manchester City manager, Pep Guardiola reacted strongly to rumors of Silva heading to Barcelona. But in the last few days, he actually gave his blessing to his player to leave.
Guardiola’s blessing certainly paved the way for Silva to head to Barcelona. Unfortunately there is no significant movement shown by the Catalan club.
According to Mundo Deportivo’s report, Barcelona’s chances of signin Silva are unlikely. The focus of the club led by Joan Laporta is now to look for a solution to be able to register five new recruits.
Barcelona are still having difficulty lowering the limit of his salary burden according to LaLiga regulations. The activation of the fourth lever of economic leverage carried out by club officials does not guarantee the problem to be resolved.
Silva’s transfer will actually add to Barcelona’s problems. Not to mention the official price of 80 million euros.
This condition is certainly detrimental to Silva. He had to fight to get back into Guardiola’s plans.
