Turin-based Juventus is preparing to submit an official offer for Manchester City midfielder Bernardo Silva. The Portuguese star is set to become a free agent at the end of the current season. The "Bianconeri" plan to act swiftly to outpace their main competitor, Barcelona, in the race for the player. This was reported by Goal.com.
According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Juventus has identified Silva as their primary target. For his part, the player is currently maintaining distance from transfer rumors. While he remains focused on winning more titles with Manchester City by the end of the season, he has indicated that he is not opposed to a move to Turin.
Juventus management views the 31-year-old footballer as a key component for building the team's play. However, the Turin side is not alone in this race. Barcelona has long expressed interest in Silva, while clubs such as Benfica and Galatasaray are also monitoring the situation.
Renowned agent Jorge Mendes is playing a significant role in the transfer process. Juventus officials are in constant contact with Mendes to discuss the financial aspects of the deal. Silva has been playing for Manchester City since 2017, winning a total of 19 trophies and establishing himself as a club legend.
