Manchester City’s Bernardu Silva wants to move to FC Barcelona.

Spain’s “Mundo Deportivo” Fernando Polo said on the 4th that “Silva is considering leaving Manchester City this summer and he wants to move to Barcelona.”

Silva is an attacking midfielder from Portugal. The ability to de-press is considered the most prominent advantage. Also, the amount of activity is enormous. He can run 13 to 14 kilometers per game. He is leading the Manchester City attack by moving widely from center to left and right. He is showing the amount of activity reminiscent of Park Ji-sung.

Silva is from Portugal’s prestigious SL Benfica youth. After being called up to Benfica’s first team in 2014, Silva left for AS Monaco on loan. After a good spell on loan, Monaco fully signed Silva, who played for Monaco until the 2016-17 season.

Silva joined Manchester City ahead of the 2017-18 season. He is now in his prime. He has scored 55 goals and 54 assists in 307 matches. He has won five Premier League titles, two FA Cups, and four EFL Cups.

Last season, he played a key role in the team’s treble. Silva scored seven goals and six assists in 55 matches last season to lead Manchester City to its first ever UEFA Champions League championship and also topped the FA Cup and Premier League.

Silva has established himself as a key midfielder for Manchester City this season as well. He has six goals and four assists in 26 Premier League matches and one goal in six Champions League matches. However, there is a chance that Silva will play for Barcelona next season, not for Manchester City.

Fernando Polo said on the 2nd, “Silva has a special release clause that allows him to sign a contract with Barcelona for 50 million euros (about 72.5 billion won).” If Barcelona pays 72.5 billion won to Manchester City, Silva can move to Barcelona. Although it is not possible to know the details of players’ contract provisions, there are cases where such provisions are limited to certain clubs.

In fact, Barcelona had already pushed for Silva’s transfer. When he moved from Monaco to Manchester City, Silva was linked to Barcelona, and after the end of the last season, Barcelona began earnestly seeking to recruit Silva. Silva chose to stay with Manchester City and is currently playing for the club.

However, Silva is considering moving to Barcelona after the end of this season. He already asked João Félix, his Portugal teammate, about his life in Barcelona. In an interview with Alfredo Fedula, Félix said, “Silva asked me about Barcelona. If I were the head of the Barcelona Decu team, I would buy Silva.”

After the end of this season, Barcelona may seek to recruit Silva again. Barcelona already had a lot of fun recruiting Manchester City players this season. Ahead of this season, Barcelona brought in Ilkay Gundoane, who played in as many as 41 matches this season, and he had five goals and 10 assists to become an indispensable player. 토토사이트
