Barcelona have been interested in signing the attacking midfielder from the Premier League champions in the ongoing transfer window.

 

Silva had his head turned by Barcelona for the second summer running and he has asked Manchester City to let him go if they receive an appropriate offer.

 

 

However, the overtures from Barcelona have not materialised into an offer and the club might not have the money to sign him this summer.

 

And it has been claimed that Silva is now prepared to commit his immediate future to the Premier League champions.

 

 

He is now set to abandon any thoughts of leaving Manchester City for another season a least.

 

Despite wanting to join Barcelona for two summers running, his relationship with Pep Guardiola has remained solid.

 

 

The Portuguese has been keen to play in Spain but is not prepared to have uncertainty over his future in the final weeks of the transfer window.

 

He is now set to stay at the Etihad for another season at least and Manchester City believe the player could also be open to signing a new contract.
