🚨🔵🔴 Barcelona are preparing first official bid for Julián Álvarez, to be sent soon — and without any players included.
Julián informed Atléti of desire to leave after rejecting a new deal months ago.
❗️ After direct meeting with agent & intermediaries, Barça will send a bid.
🚨 𝙀𝙓𝘾𝙇𝙐𝙎𝙄𝙑𝙀: Bernardo Silva to Barcelona is 90% DONE! Hansi Flick and Barça have approved the signing, while Bernardo is CRAZY to join the club.
Jorge Mendes and Barcelona are planning a meeting next week, with Bernardo Silva's transfer expected to be the main topic of discussion (not the only one). It could be the meeting where all the final details are finalized.
Bernardo Silva is asking for €4m net/year (€8m gross/year), less than what he earned at Manchester City, and he is willing to REDUCE his salary even more to make the move happen.
Flick has already spoken with Bernardo and would like to complete his signing. The deal could be completed BEFORE the World Cup.
Atlético Madrid are also interested in the player and have made approaches, but Bernardo's priority is Barcelona right now.
The deal is not completed yet, but it is very close if all parties can reach a final agreement in the coming days.
