Barcelona boss Xavi is reportedly refusing to entertain the possibility of Frenkie de Jong leaving for Manchester United unless he can prise Bernardo Silva away from Manchester City.
How Man City could line up in 2022/23 without Bernardo Silva, Raheem Sterling and Gabriel Jesus
20.06.2022 - 16:59 / manchestereveningnews.co.uk
Speculation has increased in recent days over which Manchester City players could leave this summer.
Pep Guardiola was asked directly on Monday about Bernardo Silva's future as he spoke at Barcelona to announce a friendly at the Nou Camp in August. Guardiola said he expects Bernardo to be at City next season but also didn't rule out an exit as he reiterated his stance that he doesn't want players who aren't fully committed.
Gabriel Jesus has been continuously linked with a transfer to Arsenal, for a reported fee in the £50m region, while Raheem Sterling has been touted as a Chelsea target with a year left on his contract.

City have added Erling Haaland and Julian Alvarez will strengthen Pep Guardiola's attack, possibly pushing Sterling, Jesus and Bernardo towards an exit if their chances of game time will be reduced.
All three were key players at various points last season, with Sterling battling Phil Foden and Jack Grealish for a place on the left, Bernardo most often playing alongside Kevin De Bruyne in midfield, and Jesus getting his wish for a run of games on the right-wing.
All three were also used as the designated false nine, but Haaland and Alvarez will likely change City's approach and play through the middle.
If Sterling, Bernardo and Jesus were all to depart, City would have enough options to cope, but would admittedly be thinner in terms of attacking depth than last season. Cole Palmer could step up on the wings, while Jack Grealish will hope to play a more involved part.
Possible City lineup without Sterling, Bernardo and Jesus: Ederson; Walker, Dias, Laporte, Cancelo; Rodri, De Bruyne,
