Bernardo Silva 'REJECTS moving to Tottenham as part of any Man City offer for Harry Kane, with super-agent Jorge Mendes failing to convince the midfielder AND still pitching Cristiano Ronaldo to City'

Bernardo Silva has stressed to Manchester City that he has no interest in being included in any potential part-exchange deal for wantaway Tottenham striker Harry Kane this summer, according to reports.

Premier League champions City are desperate to land Kane, but his hefty price tag of around £150million has proved a stumbling block so far. As a result, they are believed to have weighed up adding Silva into the package.

The Athletic claim that chairman Daniel Levy snubbed the proposal, with Silva instead preferring a move to Spain, and super-agent Jorge Mendes has been in Manchester this week in an attempt to solve the dilemma.
