Bernardo Silva wants to join Xavi Hernandez's Barcelona project
Posted Monday, July 04, 2022 by ESPN
Bernardo Silva has informed his agent that he would like to join Barcelona this summer, reveals Sport.
After joining Manchester City in 2017, the 27-year-old midfielder is reported to be looking for the next chapter of his career, and he is keen to make the switch to the Camp Nou after Barcelona revealed their interest in him this summer.
Negotiations are set to take place in the coming weeks as the Blaugrana look to strike a deal with the Premier League champions, though Pep Guardiola's side are currently looking for a minimum of €100 million to part ways with the Portugal international.
Barcelona manager Xavi Hernandez has made Silva a priority target this summer as talks continue over a potential deal involving Frenkie de Jong and Manchester United -- and it looks as though Silva has been identified as De Jong's replacement.
Silva made 35 Premier League appearances last season, contributing to 12 goals.
