Bernardo Silva will reportedly try to leave Manchester City if Barcelona make a bid for him.
As reported by SportBarcelona manager Xavi is a big admirer of Silva and wants to sign him.
However, for a move to go through, Barcelona will need to make at least one major sale.
Franck Kessie is about to leave Barcelona, and the midfielder is moving to Al-Ahli for £13 million, and there could be more departures.
Barcelona hope that if Kylian Mbappé leaves Paris Saint-Germain there will be an ‘explosion’ in the transfer market that could lead to them selling some of their players.
