The July transfer window ended in September 1st and many coaches in Europe were happy about it. The summer was long and unexpectable and many smaller clubs were trembiling at the end of the window, fearing that some bigger (and desperate) club will try to buy their player just at the deadline, not allowing them the possibilty to find a replacement. After September 1st, all coaches were happy, and among them was one the best – Pep Guardiola.🚨 Barcelona will resume their pursuit of Manchester City’s 28-year-old Portugal midfielder Bernardo Silva in January🇵🇹 🔴 #ForçaBarça 🔵 #MCFC pic.twitter.com/LLhfWYee0w— Ekrem KONUR (@Ekremkonur) September 11, 2022 Since the end of May, Barcelona tried to find a financial path to buy Bernardo Silva from Mancheter City. And even thou he has around three years until the end of his welthy contract, the player was obviously interested to move, otherwise he would go out and publically shut down the rumors. But, he kept quiet and that made Guardiola nervous, since the Spaniard has ‘declared’ love for the Portuguese midfileder many times and always stated that he wants him to stay, which was not the case for some other players, like Raheem Sterling for example.’Dembele is at the level of the best Neymar’And just as the transfer window passed and Silva stayed in Manchester, new problem appeared – Barcelona is not giving up and will try to sign him in January. With all their financial troube and and massive transfer spending (again), Barcelona could sign the Portuguese only if they manage to sell Frenkie De Jong, and since the player refused to move, it didn’t happen.No one is laughing at Barca’s plans anymore: Two major signings arrived, now it’s Bernardo Silva’s turnBut luck has been on president Laporta’s side (again). La Liga has raised their salary cap, after they managed to raise 800 million euros by selling various digital assets. According to Spanish Sport, this means they will have more freedom to add to their squad without worry of breaking their spending limits and now reportedly want to make a January move to sign Silva.„There were a lot of talks, but no concrete offer was made at the times we thought were right. When it came, we realised it was no longer the right time for all parties involved. Things have to happen rationally and it wasn’t the ideal scenario for Bernardo“ his father Paulo recently admitted to Stats Perform, via Mundo Deportivo.Pep loves him, but will the love be stronger than the draw of BarcelonaIf these reports are true, Pep Guardiola will have another unpleasant transfer window, trying to keep his favorite player at the Etihad stadium. When recently asked if he would like Silva to stay, he replied:„Absolutely, 110 per cent I want Bernardo to stay. I love him. I go weak when I talk about him and he knows how much we want him.”##NAJAVA_MECA_6634292##
