Real Madrid AND Paris Saint-Germain have their sights set on signing BERNARDO SILVA for the summer.

And despite being a longtime target, the Spanish powerhouses are certain that they have the best chance of signing the Portuguese playmaker.

Nevertheless, Bernardo’s current contract is extended through 2026 because he merely signed a 12-month extension a year ago.

A £50 million release clause is also included in the agreement.

The Bernabeu management is also committed to defeating PSG, a French team.

The 29-year-old’s mishandled shootout penalty kιck contributed to Real Madrid’s destruction of Manchester City’s hopes of winning a double treble.

However, they believe that his adaptability in the midfield would make him a vital player at the Bernabeu.

However, the release figure is thought to be reasonable for a person of his caliber.

Bernardo is aware of Real Madrid and PSG’s interest.

Additionally, he would prefer to relocate abroad for family reasons, even though there is no problem with City.

But, Real isn’t the only Spanish powerhouse with a keen interest in Bernardo.

Barcelona tried to sign him last summer and has since become lifelong admirers.

Joao Felix, the striker and Portugal teammate of Bernardo, acknowledges that the City player has been inquiring about living in Catalonia.

This month, Felix, who is now on loan at Barcelona from Atletico Madrid, declared: “I’m going to ask for a commission if Bernardo Silva comes.”

“Everything I’ve mentioned is accurate, and they will be thrilled to have him visit.

“He is really cautious about everything, and he inquired about my preferences for living, dining, and security.

He inquired about a few things, and I brought up tax concerns since that’s what was on my mind.

“I believe that (Bernardo is persuaded by Barcelona). I believe that.” But now, I don’t believe it is dependent on him.”
