The FC Barcelona does not want to give his market of signings estival by finished, at least for now. The Barcelona club is very near to close the incorporation of Marcos Alonso, but could have an incorporation more before it finalise the month of August. Bernardo Silva is the big aim of the blaugrana and would be entirely decided to insist in his traspaso, put the player also wants to play in the Spotify Camp Nou.

According to a recent information of the newspaper 'SPORT', the Barça prepares for a 'all-in' by Bernardo Silva. The club already would be conscious that the footballer wants to abandon the Premier League and would have intention to add to the project directed by Xavi Hernández in the City Condal. The agreement would be by the next four seasons, for 'ensure' to one of the most important footballers for Pep Guardiola in the Etihad Stadium.

From the Barcelona club are convinced that they could close the operation, but with caution in front of the figures. The City asks 80 million fixed euros by the international with Portugal and hardly go down his pretences, place is a player with which explain of face to the future. The before quoted source aims that the Barça will try to recess to the maximum said price and look for that the payment was in terms, as it happened before with Ferran Torres and Raphinha.

A key point of face to the possible incorporation of Silva is that it would not depend on the exit of Frenkie of Jong, as it had informed up to now. The club understands that it is in capacity to assume the traspaso of the offensive midfield player of the City under two circumstances: the sale of the Dutch, that would leave in the arks 80-€85m, or the reduction of 50% of his wage in this season, in principle. It is a stage more 'favourable' for the culés, but keeps on being complicated because the player resists .

In this sense, the beginning of the negotiation has been it carrying directly the Barcelona president Joan Laporta, the one who would have done two key promises: One to Bernardo ensuring him that went him to fichar of face to the season 2022-23 and another to Frenkie, to the one who confirmed him his continuity if it accessed to go down the wage in 50%, always according to the information of the newspaper 'SPORT'.

In the breast of the Catalan club there is quite optimism regarding the possible arrival of Bernardo Silva, of the that said recently that it had it decided and went to expect to the Barça until the last day of market, refusing all the options that have put him on the table (the PSG, one of them). Joan Laporta and company will put all his efforts and next week could resolve his case, depending on what happen with Frenkie of Jong.

Guardiola Does not ensure his continuity

What himself is true is that from the Manchester City do not ensure the continuity of Silva, as it has confessed it Pep Guardiola in a recent press conference, aiming that "when you are footballer all does very short, do not darse and almost finish . The player will have to speak with the club, I never have been involved in this. I want the best for the player and that Bernardo remain here, to 100%. It is an important player for me, is special for me, but do not know what goes to happen and that I know, do not receive any offer, the season happened neither".
