Bernardo Silva almost left last summer. In the end he decided to stay at Manchester City and Pep Guardiola was grateful for that as the club would miss him dearly if he decided to pack his bags.
According to 'Mundo Deportivo', Guardiola gave the floor to Bernardo Silva that, if he still wanted to leave this summer, he would allow him. However, there is more. The former Barcelona manager would be willing to help Silva as much as possible to facilitate a move to another club if he wants.
As Bernardo Silva already wanted to leave last year, Barça has been following the situation for a year. The Catalan newspaper claims that Barcelona have already negotiated with City to sign him. Nothing came of it due to the financial situation on the Spanish side.
