Manchester City manager, Pep Guardiola, has admitted Bernardo Silva might leave the club this summer.
Silva is wanted by Barcelona and Guardiola has made it clear he only wants to keep “happy” players.
City are yet to receive an offer for the Portugal midfielder, but Guardiola is refusing to rule out his departure before the Sep. 1 deadline.
“I want players to be happy. Of course I want Bernardo to be here but I don’t know what is going to happen, honestly I don’t know.
“What will happen will happen and if in the end he has to leave it’s because football is like this and I won’t be a person to stop the desires of the people.
“When you are a football player it is so short,” Guardiola told a news conference on Friday.
