Juventus could lose it, offer €8m a year to Benfica target | OneFootball

Juventus have already entered the race for Bernardo Silva and are willing to offer him one of the highest salaries in the squad, in an attempt to convince the Portugal international to move to Turin following his confirmed departure from Manchester City.

Despite the progress, the deal is far from being done, with the player asking for time to decide and considering other options, including financially strong offers from outside Europe, while in Serie A he faces indirect competition from clubs such as Benfica, Barcelona, among others.

On the financial side, Juventus are prepared to go beyond their usual limits to secure the signing, even knowing that the player is demanding a high salary, in the region of 8 to 9 million per year, still above the club’s usual wage ceiling, according to the Italian press.

This season, playing for Manchester City, Bernardo Silva - valued at 27 million euros - has already made 44 appearances: 31 in the Premier League, eight in the Champions League, three in the EFL Cup and two in the FA Cup. In the 3,208 minutes he has been on the pitch, he has recorded three goals and five assists.
