Barcelona has had their sights on Manchester City playmaker Bernardo Silva for a long time now. The Portuguese international had been a key target for the club for multiple summers.
Barcelona want to sign Bernardo Silva in the summer of 2026, according to Sports Boom. Silva is out of contract at Manchester City at the end of the season, and last season's La Liga champions, Barcelona, are keen on snapping up his services on a free transfer thereafter. However, Barcelona are not the only club that are interested in a bargain deal for Silva.
Silva has spent the past nine seasons with Manchester City, recently having the captaincy bestowed upon him by similarly long-serving boss Pep Guardiola. According to the controversial figure, Cesc Fabregas' impressive Como outfit could be Silva's next club. Like other top players who are no longer very young, he could come to our league, Di Canio said after suggesting Silva's agency Gestifute, headed by super agent Jorge Mendes, have reportedly been exploring the possibility of moving their client to Italy.
Luka Modric has been one of the best signings of the summer, and AC Milan were the ones to profit from his exit from Real Madrid. A lot was said about Modric and whether he would be a hit or a miss for Milan. After all, many had doubts about whether he could consistently churn out solid performances. However, within the first few games, those questions were answered.
Man City was so successful in the last eight years not because one captain was really good but because we have a group of great leaders," said Silva. "Obviously as the first captain you have to make sure some things don't happen to create that environment but what we've seen is a group of great characters. "My job now is to create that energy back so people behave right, arrive early to training. "In terms of responsibility you need more than four [captains], we had 10 or 15 players like that who behaved as captains.
