Barcelona reignite interest in Bernardo Silva as president Joan Laporta admits he wants to sign the Manchester City midfielder

Barcelona president Joan Laporta has admitted he'd like to bring Bernardo Silva to the Nou Camp, as the Spanish club reignite their interest in the Man City star.

The Portuguese midfielder has been at the centre of speculation that he could leave the Etihad following City's historic treble win last season.

There had been reports that Saudi side Al Hilal had offered him a contract that was worth £75million-per-season to become the latest player to move to the middle east.

French side PSG are also keen on Silva and have reportedly offered a player-exchange deal to try and land the 28-year-old.
