An article in a Spanish newspaper reported that Manchester City's Portuguese international star Bernardo Silva has not yet decided on his next destination, despite leaving the English team at the end of the current season.

Reports have confirmed that the player prefers to move to Barcelona, as he awaits the green light from the Catalan club's management, despite receiving multiple offers, particularly from Italian clubs.

Silva relies on his agent, Jorge Mendes, for this matter, who is leading the negotiations and pushing to finalize the deal. The obstacle does not seem to be financial, but rather related to how well the player fits into the team's project and plans for the new season.

For his part, the sporting director Deco is considering all options before making a final decision, especially given the abundance of attacking players within the team, in addition to financial constraints that necessitate caution in movements.

Despite nearing 32 years of age, Silva believes he is still capable of making a significant contribution at the highest level in Europe. He is determined to stay on the old continent and has rejected offers from the Saudi and American leagues.

The player's future remains dependent on the decision of Barcelona's management, while indications suggest that the matter is still open, awaiting the finalization of the team's structure before the start of the new season.
