The
Atlético de Madrid
look at Bernardo silva. This is how the newspaper assures this Thursday France Football, which indicates that the rojiblanco club thinks big with the Portuguese Manchester City to reinforce his midfield for next season.
It is a demarcation in which the colchoneros will have to sign yes or yes after the departure of Torreira, whose transfer by Arsenal came to an end, and the possible Saúl Ñíguez, which seriously contemplates the possibility of leaving the Metropolitan this summer. What's more, Herrera it is transferable.
And although the cache of Bernardo silva is high, the prestigious French newspaper assures that Atlético thinks of him. 26 years old, and holder for Pep Guardiola on a regular basis, the midfielder is not fixed for the coming season in the British plans. Because the Catalan coach has the name of Jack
Grealish, from Aston Villa, and if he succeeds in his signing, he would open the door to the Portuguese.
That is where Atlético enters the scene, which has several players in its portfolio. One of them is Rodrigo de Paul, from Udinese, for which even from the Metropolitan a first offer was made that was rejected by his club, which asks for 40 million. In addition, there is a lot of competition for the international albiceleste.
France Football remember that, in the summer of 2016, Atlético de Madrid already tried, without success, to seize the services of Bernardo silva. Then, the Portuguese was still active in Monaco, from where he signed for City in 2017 in exchange for 50 million euros. Its market value has not decreased since then, rather the opposite, which makes this operation complicated for a club like Atlético, which only in case of selling to a star, could consider this incorporation and also, always with the predisposition of the City to a transfer.
In this sense, the figure of Jorge Mendes, representative of Bernardo Silva, could be favorable for Atlético given the good relations it maintains with the famous soccer player agent, whose portfolio includes, for example, Joao Felix. Both players are preparing for the Euro Cup with Portugal.
