Catalan giants Barcelona are willing to offload 6 players in attempt to fund move for Premier League superstar, Bernardo Silva.
El Nacional reports that the Manchester City superstar has been linked with a move to Saudi Pro League side Al-Hilal as well.
Barca have already signed Ilkay Gundogan from Manchester City and Inigo Martinez from Athletic Bilbao.
However, Bernardo Silva reportedly remains the club’s top priority.
Given the club’s current financial situation, it’s tough for Barca to fund a move for Silva.
Hence, the Blaugrana are looking to offload six players to sign Silva.
Alex Collado, Clement Lenglet, and Sergino Dest are thought to be the first three players that they will offload.
All three of them spent the previous season on loan.
They are not expected to have an immediate future at the club.
On the other hand, there are three first-team stars whom Barcelona could look to offload to fund a move for Silva.
Eric Garcia, Franck Kessie, and Ferran Torres have all failed to impress so far this season.
Hence, Barca could look to get rid of the trio in their attempt to sign Silva.
Bernardo Silva has been a key part of Manchester City since joining the Etihad club in 2017.
He has so far made 306 appearances for Pep Guardiola’s side, scoring 55 goals and providing 59 assists across competitions
