It is now believed that Manchester City are willing to let key star Bernardo Silva leave in the summer if an offer of €80m comes through for the Portuguese international.
The midfielder has been one of City’s best players since joining the Premier League club in 2017, but according to the Daily Mail, the Portugal international has admitted his desire to potentially start a new project far from the city recently.
The Telegraph is now reporting that the Manchester club may grant Silva his wish this summer and would be willing to let the 28-year-old leave in the summer if an €80m offer for the star comes through.

Silva was subject to interest from Barcelona last summer, but it never materialized. However, the Catalan club ruled out signing the manchester city star in January because they refuse to splurge on their €80m price tag and are likely to be the same in the summer due to their financial woes.
Barcelona president Joan Laporta told Spanish outlet Cadena Ser via the Daily Mail: “Bernardo Silva for 80m euros (£70.8m) will surely not come… because we won’t pay them.” .

Another potential destination would be PSG, as Kylian Mbappe is believed to want Silva at the Paris-based club after the two shared the pitch for Monaco between 2015 and 2017, claims the Daily Mail.
Whoever gets Silva is going to get a tremendous player and where he ends up will become clearer as the summer window approaches.
