Deco, Barcelona's current sporting director, revealed in an interview that Bernardo Silva expressed his intention to transfer to the Catalan club. The former Portuguese player, who was a teammate of Bernardo Silva at AS Monaco between 2013 and 2015, spoke about the Portuguese midfielder's interest in the blaugrana emblem.

Deco also commented on the situation of Julián Alvarez, another player who has been linked to Barcelona. The sporting director addressed the difficulties the club faces in the transfer market and the financial limitations that constrain the club's movements.

Throughout the interview, Deco compared his own transfer experience from Porto to Barcelona with the current situations. The former midfielder recalled that in his time, Pinto da Costa was a different kind of president in how he conducted negotiations, contrasting with the current reality of the Catalan club.
