“I told PSG board to help me sign him before Baby Coach Pep Guardiola even think of renewing his contract, he does not know how to manage this kinds of talents and keep benching them”- PSG Manager Luis Enrique now want to sign £45m Manchester City player who is a Bench warmer at City. Why will Luis Enrique call Pep a Baby Coach? 💔 What has he achieved in Football?.
Paris Saint-Germain is ‘perfectly positioned’ to sign a major Manchester City star during the summer transfer season.
Le10Sport believes the French champions will make a play for Bernardo Silva.
PSG are expected to lose their best star, Kylian Mbappe, this year after the Frenchman notified his club that he will not be extending his contract at the conclusion of the season.
This has left PSG with a major hole in their side to fill, as well as a lot of leftover wages, prompting them to once again be connected with Silva from City.
PSG linked with Bernardo Silva.
According to French website Le10Sport, Bernardo is a ‘priority’ for PSG football advisor Luis Campos, despite the club’s failure to sign him in 2022 and 2023.
Bernardo has been linked with a return to mainland Europe for years, but no serious offer has come in for him.
The 29-year-old appeared to secure his future in the summer by extending his contract until 2026.
However, Bernardo’s latest contract includes a £50 million release clause, leaving PSG ‘perfectly positioned’ to eventually sign him.
It is stated that the clause only takes effect on July 1, but Bernardo ‘wants to come to Paris.’
Bernardo is often linked with either PSG or Barcelona, and this year is no exception.
It appears that even signing a new contract until 2026 is unable to quell speculation over the Portugal international’s future.
However, the prospect of such an affordable release clause is unsettling. PSG would have no problem paying £50 million, and that’s before a significant percentage of their cash is freed up by Mbappe’s departure.
Bernardo is just the type of world-class operator the Parisians require to mitigate the impact of losing such a key player.
It appears that City will face another nerve-racking summer as they await the departure of one of their greatest players.
