Juventus make Silva contact, Chelsea get 'green light' on deal - Euro Transfer News

Turin giants Juventus have entered the race for Manchester City playmaker Bernardo Silva, setting up a summer tug-of-war with Barcelona and other leading European sides. Sources confirm that Juve have now made formal contact regarding the Portugal international, signalling their intent to secure one of the continent’s most coveted midfielders.

Silva, who has been a key creative force for City, is attracting widespread interest ahead of the upcoming transfer window. Barcelona have long been admirers, yet Juventus are determined to muscle in on any potential deal and are positioning themselves as serious contenders.

Meanwhile, west London outfit Chelsea have reportedly received the green light to push ahead with their own move, giving the Blues confidence that a deal can be struck should personal terms be agreed. With three heavyweight clubs now circling, Silva’s future promises to be one of the summer’s headline sagas.

Juventus’ approach underscores their ambition to reinforce the midfield with proven quality, while Chelsea’s accelerated efforts could force rivals to act swiftly. Barcelona, for their part, remain keen but now face intensified competition for the 29-year-old’s signature.

As negotiations gather pace, Manchester City will weigh up whether to sanction an exit or stand firm to retain a player who has contributed heavily to their recent success. The coming weeks are expected to provide clarity on where Silva will ply his trade next season.
