There is an agreement between FC Barcelona and the club’s footballer to leave, taking into account that Manchester City would give the go-ahead for his sale if an important offer arrives. There is talk that the whole SkyBlue would be asking for 80 million euros. His incorporation depends on the departure of Frenkie de Jong, which would give the club the possibility of having more money to invest after all the signings that have been closed in recent weeks.An important investment that, in many cases, has generated an interesting debate: Why does Xavi Hernández want Bernardo Silva? Beyond being a great player, the Portuguese arrives to promote a role that does not abound within the Blaugrana squad.
Why does Xavi love Bernardo Silva?
The Portuguese has become, at the hands of Pep Guardiola, one of the best interiors in the world. Playing on the left wing, he has complete freedom to associate with his teammates and intervene at different heights on the pitch. He can appear on the base as stepping on the finishing zone at various times in the game. A profile that Xavi wants to try to replicate in his FC Barcelona.
The Blaugrana team only has two interiors capable of shining playing between the lines (Pedri and Gavi). In the friendly match against Juventus, Xavi used Kessié and Nico González in that role, this being the team’s worst football stretch in preseason. He knows that if Gavi or Pedri aren’t available, he won’t have the pieces to fill that role. Bernardo Silva would be the ideal piece to take on this responsibility, as he is a much better footballer than the two young Spaniards today.
It is a signing that, beyond positioning the club among the best in Europe, is necessary to be able to have a bit of differential quality in different areas of the field and to be able to have a profile that can contribute, in a differential way, at different heights.
