Bernardo Silva puts a damper on the Barcelona-Atletico Madrid war


Portugal star Bernardo Silva has ended the battle between Barcelona and Atletico Madrid over both sides’ efforts to woo him to sign for Manchester City at the end of the 2025-26 campaign.

Officials of “Atletico” Madrid have entered into negotiations to include Silva, “Barcelona” has also entered the line.

The Rojiblancos believe the news of Barcelona agreeing terms with Bernardo is nothing more than a deliberate leak from the Catalan club, which comes in the context of the ongoing conflict over the signing of Julián Alvarez, with a view to derailing the deal and raising financial demands.

Bernardo Silva has chosen Barcelona as his next destination despite strong interest from Atletico Madrid, according to journalist Gerard Romero.

At a time when the Rojiblancos appeared to be in advanced talks with the former Manchester City star, he sent them a clear message (according to Romero).

Barcelona are ready to sign the 31-year-old, who has also agreed to take a significant pay cut as they make room in the squad by offloading some players.

Technical director Hansi Flick agreed to join Silva. The German coach believes that the Portuguese midfielder can be an additional weapon that can replace Lamin Yamal and also strengthen the midfield.

This may not bode well for Atletico, who have already criticized Barcelona for their pursuit of Julián Alvarez. Several reports suggest that Atletico’s resistance will eventually be broken due to the Argentinian’s strong desire to play for the Catalan club.
