It was perhaps the high point of an already particularly enticing 24hfootnews de Barça. Bernardo Silva, the Manchester City midfielder where he now shines in the axis of the field in association with Kevin De Bruyne, has been announced for several weeks on the side of the Catalan club.
The Portuguese seemed visibly attracted to the Barcelona challenge in order to take up a new challenge, and even Pep Guardiola did not seem to completely close the door on his departure, certainly sensing his desires elsewhere. But while there are now two weeks of 24hfootnews left, The Athletic has just released a big scoop.
A departure for Barça only in a year?
According to the English media, the departure of Bernardo Silva at Barça should be forgotten, at least for this summer. Manchester City claiming 100 million euros for his transfer, Bernardo Silva seems inaccessible for Catalan finances currently. The file could therefore be relaunched in a year, with Bernardo Silva who would be totally willing to give 100% of his investment on the City side despite this abortive departure.
Bernardo Silva is ready to commit his immediate future to Manchester City and abandon any thoughts of a transfer to Barcelona for this season at least, reveals @OliverKay #MCFC #FCBhttps://t.co/dAChEXaiVG
