Bernardo Silva will be proactive about trying to force an exit to Barcelona next summer if the club are still interested in a transfer, according to reports.
The Portuguese midfielder was said to be mulling over a move to the Nou Camp before the start of this season with discussions even being held, albeit no offer was ever made. In September, Silva’s dad, Paulo, confirmed there had been contact from the La Liga giants.
He said: “There were a lot of talks, but no concrete offer was made at the times we thought were right. When it arrived, we realised that it was no longer the right time for all parties involved.”
