Barcelona will do ‘everything they can’ to sign Bernardo Silva after solving salary issues

Even though only a few days left in the transfer window, Barcelona are still not giving up on their pursuit of Bernardo Silva.

The 28-year-old has been the Catalan giants’ top target this summer, with the club working to sign him for a while now after closing the deals for their transfer targets fairly early in the window.

However, Barça’s financial problems have created issues with player registrations, with the club working on putting out fires one after the other. Having registered six of the seven unregistered players ahead of their La Liga opener, they are working to add Kounde officially to their La Liga squad.

But, once they manage to get that over the line and free up further space on the salary bill by offloading players, Barcelona plan to do ‘everything they can’ to sign Bernardo Silva, reports Gerard Romero.

While the Blaugrana refuse to throw in the towel, signing the Portuguese international might not be as straightforward. PSG have entered the race to sign Silva and are making a concrete push for his signing in the final week of the window.

Reports claim that the midfielder has already agreed personal terms with the French champions, although their opening offer of €70 million has been knocked down by Manchester City.

The Premier League champions continue to insist that they will not let Silva leave. But, with the player seemingly keen on a new challenge a move could still materialise.

Unlike Barcelona, PSG do not have their hands tied financially and do not have to wait to complete player sales and resolve the La Liga Fair Play issues before going after Silva.

So, it might prove difficult for the Blaugrana to get the deal over the line. However, Mateu Alemany & co. have pulled off deals from unlikely positions this summer. And crazy things can happen in the final days of a transfer window.
