Bernardo Silva is now just 7/4 to sign for Barcelona this Summer
Manchester City player Bernardo Silva is now just 7/4 to sign for Barcelona this transfer window, with bookies shortening his odds to move.
City boss Pep Guardiola yesterday said, "I would love for Bernardo to continue here, a very special player in the locker room. But I don't know what will happen. What happens will happen".
Unibet have made Silva's favourite destination Barcelona if he was to leave Manchester this Summer.
PSG have also been rumoured to sign the player this transfer window, with City looking for at least £60m for his signature.
Silva is 4/6 to stay at Manchester City after this transfer window
Despite Silva being 7/4 to leave City for Barcelona this Summer, bookies still make it 4/6 that he stays in Manchester.
There have long been rumours of Bernardo Silva being unhappy in Manchester and needing a fresh start and that may be the same this season.
Pep Guardiola's pre-match presser ahead of Sunday's West Ham game was dominated by Silva discussions around the player's future.
Guardiola said, "at the end, for the club/players/agents we have to divide our path. The players' desire is most important thing, I want players to be happy."
It's shown previously this window that if there's an unhappy player at City then the club will allow them to leave, with Raheem Sterling moving to Chelsea.
Manchester City specials available ahead of the new season
Manchester City will be hoping for another big season in the 2022/23 campaign with the club favourites for every competition they are in.
City have improved their squad with the signings of Erling Haaland and Kalvin Phillips, but they have also seen big departures in Gabriel Jesus and Raheem Sterling.
Bookmakers have already made them 28/1 to win the Quadruple this season with a whole host of trophy multiples available for the new campaign.
| Man City Trophy Multiples | Odds | Probability |
|---|---|---|
| Premier League & Champions League | 4/1 | 20.0% |
| Premier League & FA Cup | 11/2 | 15.4% |
| Premier League, FA Cup & Champions League | 18/1 | 5.3% |
| Premier League, FA Cup & EFL Cup | 25/1 | 3.8% |
| Premier League, FA Cup, EFL Cup & Champions League | 28/1 | 3.4% |
In the 2018/19 season, City became the first and only team since to win the domestic treble with the 6-0 FA Cup win over Watford completing the feat.
They're 25/1 to repeat that feat this season by winning every domestic trophy they can, but bookies make it better odds that they win the Champions League instead of the EFL Cup.
