In recent days, the transfer of eruptions from Saudi Arabia is even more at the center of public attention than what is happening on the European continent. Clubs from the Middle East set out to buy everything available in order to raise the league to a higher level and show everyone that they are capable of building strong teams which already heralds a new football revolution.Bernardo Silva is among those whom the Saudis want to shower with a mountain of money. Unlike many who have already packed their bags and set off for the Middle East, the Portuguese has so far successfully resisted the challenge and the fabulous sums of money mentioned. And there are rumors about a salary of 200,000,000 euros.##NAJAVA_MECA_7373578##As the Catalan Mundo Deportivo reports, Silva is reportedly ready to turn down huge millions in order to fulfill his boyhood dream and continue his career in Barcelona. At the Camp Nou stadium, Bernardo emerged again as a conceptual solution that Joan Laporta and Xavi agree on, so they have already contacted the player’s agent Jorge Mendes to see how the transfer can be realized.Barça have been trying to sign him for three years without success, but this could be the summer when the big breakthrough will come that would bring Silva to Catalonia. For that to happen, Barcelona must take the first step. Not just talk to the footballer’s agent, but to contact Manchester City. And if the club show seriousness in their approach, Bernardo is ready to put pressure on Pep Guardiola and City chiefs to let him go.That all looks great on paper, but there is a big hurdle ahead – a replacement that City would have to sign in order to let Silva go. The Portuguese is still playing in top form, he is one of the best footballers in Europe in his position and it is not easy to find his successor. He is one of the key players in City’s historic season that ended with winning the treble, i.e. the Premier League, the FA Cup and the Champions League.🚨 Bernardo Silva has decided to temporarily put aside the offers from PSG and Saudi Arabia and focus on a move to Barcelona. It’s his priority. 💙❤️(Source: @mundodeportivo ) pic.twitter.com/tIzXGqCyD8— Transfer News Live (@DeadlineDayLive) July 15, 2023 While Jorge Mendes is trying to bring all the parties together, Mundo Deportivo claim that Guardiola is ready to grant Silva his wish, but only if Barcelona send an adequate offer. That will be a problem because Barça do not have a lot of money right now and a possible talk about a loan with a mandatory purchase would only make sense, so that the Financial Fair Play can be respected. The other issue is whether City are ready for such a solution.Joan Laporta and his entourage, Deco and Mateu Alemany are expected to open talks with Ferran Soriano, Txiki Begiristain and Pep Guardiola soon. And what the final outcome will be, we will probably find out some time at the end of the transfer window…
