Barcelona seeks to strengthen its ranks during the upcoming summer transfer period with several world-class players so that the Catalan team regains its usual strength and competes for all titles.
In light of this, a lot of news has spread recently indicating that the Spanish club Barcelona wants to obtain the services of one of the most important players in coach Pep Guardiola’s team from the heart of the English club Manchester City.
Spanish press reports stated that Deco, Barcelona’s sporting director, held a previous meeting with the agent of the brilliant Portuguese star, Bernardo Silva, in order to gauge the player’s pulse on moving to the ranks of the Catalan team.
Laporta said in statements to the newspaper “Mundo Deportivo”: “Since last season, we have been aspiring to sign him, but I do not know whether things are going well this time or not.”
Laporta concluded: “Our priority is confidence in the team we have. We do not want to sign players who could distort our harmony.”
It is noteworthy that the Portuguese player also wants to move to Barcelona, and Guardiola may allow him to leave this summer, especially if the Dutch player Frenkie de Jong is included in the deal, which will please the Barcelona administration, which wants to abandon the services of the Dutch star.
