TOP STORY: PSG plot swoop for City’s Silva
Paris Saint-Germain are pushing ahead in their efforts to sign Manchester City midfielder Bernardo Silva in the summer, according to Le10Sport.
Les Parisiens will likely lift the Ligue 1 trophy but, after an early Champions League exit and a series of poor performances, this season has been one to forget under manager Christophe Galtier and it remains to be seen if the 56-year-old will be in the dugout next campaign.
Regardless of who is in charge next season, the report says sporting director Luis Campos is pushing ahead with his rebuild of the PSG squad and Silva is French giants’ top priority. The Portugal international played with Kylian Mbappe at AS Monaco during Campos’ impressive spell as director in the principality, and it is suggested that the striker has been working alongside Campos for a year to aid the club’s efforts to lure Silva.
Silva’s future at the Etihad has been clouded for some time and there was a suggestion that a move to Paris last summer fell through because City weren’t willing to let the midfielder go, despite him being open to a transfer. Now PSG are doubling down in their attempts to sign Silva to fill the hole that be left by Lionel Messi and Neymar, who both seem certain to leave the Qatari-owned club.
