Real Madrid 'eyeing move for Man City star Bernardo Silva' and other transfer rumours

Manchester City star Bernardo Silva is reportedly on the radar of Real Madrid.

Bernardo revealed this week that with two years left to run on his City contract that he would be open to a 'new project' elsewhere should the opportunity arise. This is not the first time he has requested to move away from the Blues and up until now, he has remained loyal to his contract.

While he did not declare that he wanted to leave City in January, he did explain that his ultimate goal is to move to Benfica. However, according to Sport, Carlo Ancelotti's men are looking at the possibility of bringing Bernardo to the Bernabeu for £80m.

Barcelona, who were believed to be interested in Bernardo during the summer, are thought to be unwilling to match that valuation. The move for Bernardo by Los Blancos is believed to coincide with Toni Kroos potentially retiring or leaving Madrid.

Elsewhere, according to Marca, Real Madrid are thought to be eager to complete the signing of Borussia Dortmund's Jude Bellingham 'as soon as possible'. Bellingham is currently on the radar of City with Pep Guardiola an admirer of the teenager.

MEN Sport understands that Manchester United would also battle with the Blues for the signing of Bellingham. However, if reports in the Spanish press are to be believed, both of the clubs in our city could miss out.

They claim that Bellingham has 'turned a deaf ear' to numerous advances from other clubs. It is stated that Ancelotti's side are 'well on the way' to signing the Englishman.
