Manchester City are encouraging Barcelona to bid big for Bernardo Silva.

L'Equipe says City have offered Silva to Barcelona this week.

City have already banked over £150m from selling players this summer with Raheem Sterling, Oleksandr Zinchenko and Gabriel Jesus the primary sources of income.

And now they wish to cash in on Bernardo as they consider replacing the midfielder with a younger prospect.

It's been suggested City want to sell Bernardo and acquire Lyon ace Lucas Paqueta as a direct replacement.
