Barcelona 'confident' of securing Bernardo Silva deal and more Man City transfer rumours

Barcelona are reportedly confident that they can snatch Bernardo Silva from Manchester City for a bargain price.

According to Spanish sports newspaper Sport, Barcelona are confident that they can sign Bernardo for €65m (£54m) - €15m below City's reported asking price.

Earlier this week Bernardo gave an interview to ESPN in which he failed to rule out a departure from the Etihad Stadium, admitting that he does not know where his future lies.

On Friday Guardiola reiterated that he would 'love' to keep Bernardo, but that anything could happen in the remaining 20 days of the transfer window.

Meanwhile, 21-year-old right-back Issa Kabore looks set to join French side Marseille on a season-long loan, with Le Parisien reporting that the Burkina Faso international will undergo a medical in the coming days.

Kabore was signed from Belgian side Mechelen in 2020 and spent last season out on loan. Kabore attracted international attention earlier this year when he was named the best young player at the Africa Cup of Nations.
