Xavi Hernández will insist in the weeks to come in the signing of Bernardo Silva by the FC Barcelona. For the míster of Terrassa, the mediocentro of the Manchester City is a fundamental piece to reorganise a diagram culé that has lacked creativity this season after the injuries of Pedri and Gavi. However, the operation keeps on being complex for a Barça without money in box to be able to fichar.

In this sense, the newspaper 'SPORT' ensures that the technician egarense would give green light to the exit of Frenkie of Jong with such of fichar to the of Lisbon this summer. The '20' of the City is one of the reinforcements that have resisted him to the Barcelona trainer in the two last years and, in front of the disposal of the club and the footballer to negotiate with the Barça, Xavi thinks that is now or never to go to by the international Portuguese.

In Barcelona there is not concenso on the signing of Bernardo Silva

Further of the insistence of the trainer, the directive follows without seeing of the all clear the profitability to spend 58 million euros in Bernardo. So much Joan Laporta like Deco bend more by the signing of another forward in place of a mediapunta, further of the money that sue the operation. The Barça expects to do box with the new agreement of Nike and the resolution of the 'crowbar' of Líbero to return to the norm of the 1:1 from the beginning of the market, although it also is opened the possibility to close a pair of traspasos important.

For now, Of Jong keeps in the list of transferibles, although the posture of the footballer will be determinant to resolve his future. The club expects to renew him in freve or, of the contrary, listen offers by the order of the 70-80 million euros, although his current clause is of 400 'kilos'. The Dutch has left clear his wish to remain in several opportunities, fulfilling an agreement that finalises in 2026. Bayern Munich and Manchester United are, for the moment, the destinations that sound with more strength for the tulip.

The City, opened to negotiate by Bernardo

By his part, in Manchester seemed to have a more flexible posture no only regarding the exit of Bernardo, but also to a barter with the Barça that sent to Frenkie to the group 'sky blue'. The signing of the Dutch would allow to Pep Guardiola reinforce a centre of the field that has showed some fragility without Ílkay Gündogan and, besides, would give another hit in the market to a United that follows dreaming with adding to the of Arkel. Of equal way, in the financial, the City sees with good eyes the operation, since Bernardo has a clause of rescission of 58 'kilos' and Of Jong hardly would go out by less than €70m.
