Manchester City star in talks with Barcelona and Real Madrid

Speculation is mounting regarding the future of Manchester City‘s standout player, Bernardo Silva. Following the announcement of his departure at the end of the current season, Silva’s agent, Jorge Mendes, has begun exploring new club options for the midfielder.

Reports from AS indicate that Silva has been presented to Real Madrid; however, the club has not expressed significant interest. Despite the 31-year-old’s impressive track record and experience against Los Blancos in the Champions League, Real Madrid’s management is looking to build a different squad for the 2026/27 season and currently views Silva as not fitting into their plans.

Meanwhile, Barcelona has also shown interest in Silva, having previously made an offer for the Portuguese international. However, the situation regarding his potential transfer to the Catalan club remains uncertain.

Silva continues to demonstrate his value on the field, having played 46 matches this season, where he has scored 3 goals and provided 5 assists. In other transfer news, Inter Milan is set to finalize the acquisition of Manchester City centre-back Manuel Akanji.
