Manchester City Treble winner Bernardo Silva is the subject of a new offer from Saudi Arabia, as speculation over his future intensifies.
The Portuguese midfielder is in talks with Paris Saint-Germain, according to prolific transfer guru, Fabrizio Romano – but is the latest target for the Saudi Pro League following the capture of Ruben Neves.
Al Hilal are set to sign the Wolverhampton Wanderers midfielder £47 million deal, with fellow Jorge Mendes client Silva next on the list as a potential Premier League star moving to the Middle East.
According to The Athletic's David Ornstein, talks have taken place over Silva swapping the Etihad for Saudi Arabia, though the midfielder is "likely to turn down" the opportunity.
"The 28-year-old’s future at City remains uncertain amid admiration from PSG and Barcelona but initial indications are that he would favour continuing to play in Europe over accepting the potential Saudi switch," Ornstein writes.
Barcelona were believed to be interested in Silva last summer, with the Portuguese opting not to push for a move. This season, he has been used more on the right-wing than in the midfield role that Pep Guardiola has used him more regularly earlier on in his City career.
With the Saudi Pro League signing the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo and Karim Benzema this year, Bernardo Silva would perhaps become the best player in the league, in terms of their current level of ability.
City are also fielding interest for the likes of Ilkay Gundogan, Kyle Walker and Joao Cancelo, who are all wanted by rivals.
Silva is valued at €80m by Transfermarkt.
