Manchester City fans have been reacting to a post on Twitter which relays a report that claims Paris Saint-Germain star Neymar has been offered in exchange for Portuguese midfielder Bernardo Silva.
Manchester City haven’t been afraid to splash the cash over the years, and that certainly hasn’t stopped this summer, bringing in Kalvin Phillips, Erling Haaland, and Julian Alvarez.
After offloading Gabriel Jesus and Raheem Sterling, Manchester City may be considering a move for another forward this summer, and according to Le Parisien, PSG have offered the Premier League champions Neymar, in exchange for Bernardo Silva.
However, the report says the French champions did make contact with City, but Pep Guardiola’s side have declined to enter talks.
As translated by Sport Witness, Pep Guardiola does not want to ‘unbalance the construction’ of his Man City squad with ‘the arrival of such a star’ in Neymar.
Neymar is undoubtedly one of the best players in Europe, but losing Bernardo Silva is possibly not an ideal situation for Guardiola either.
The Portuguese midfielder was one of City’s best performers last season, and losing him could be detrimental to their success.
The report was shared on Twitter by City Xtra and it attracted plenty of attention from the club’s supporters.
