Silva is interested in signing for Barcelona and he has told them his interest and is willing to wait for them. Man City value the player for around €90m. Now where thing get interesting is that Manchester City are interested in Raphina. So there could be a real deal but it seems there will be cash involved.
Negotiate are ongoing and we'll see if anything can come out of it.
Xavi Hernandez has come up to dispute the transfer rumor of Raphina. He said that the Brazilian winger is part of plans this season and not for sale. Raphina has scored ten goals and created twelve assists. He is also a winger that does a lot of defensive play and Xavi cherishes him so much. Let's see how this transfer drama will play out.
Lionel Messi's return to Barcelona is a deal I never wanted materialize and I'm glad it didn't working, Barcelona would have taken step backwards if Lionel Messi had return to Barcelona because the team would have returned to Messi reliance yet again and it would have been a problem whenever he's retiring or quitting football generally.
I also didn't want the deal to materialize because Barcelona has gradually recovered from the influence of Messi. Xavi Hernandez has built the team around a new set of players such as Raphinha, Robert Lewandowski, and others. If Messi returns to Barca he will distort this development and cause the club to fall back on him. I also perceive that there will also be a supremacy clash between Lewandowski and Messi because both of them are influential.
