Juventus have concrete plans to sign Silva and are open to a deal, but wages pose a thorny issue. Silva’s current weekly pay is widely estimated to be around £300,000, which would far exceed Juventus’s typical salary structure unless the player accepted a pay cut.

Manchester City are at risk of losing Bernardo Silva on a free transfer next summer, with interest in his signature ramping up. Transfer insider Dean Jones revealed on September 19 that Silva is being targeted by Juventus. The Portuguese’s contract expires at the end of this season, meaning that overseas clubs are free to hold negotiations with him in January. Juventus’ pursuit of Silva is understood to be in its early stages, but sources in Turin have confirmed to TEAMtalk that the club have ambitions of signing him. Silva currently earns £300,000 per week with Manchester City, while Juve’s wage structure is understood to be in the region of half that figure. That disparity raises doubts over whether a deal could be struck, unless Silva is prepared to make a significant personal sacrifice or Juve undergo a major financial shift.

Juventus are exploring the possibility of signing Bernardo Silva on a free transfer next summer. According to TEAMtalk sources in Italy, it is still very early in the process. There has been no formal approach to Silva's camp and no discussions between the clubs, and the situation remains an ambition rather than an active negotiation. Even on a free transfer, the finances could prove problematic as Silva earns around £300,000 a week. Juventus' current wage structure is understood to be in the region of half that figure. Sources close to the situation admit his demands are likely to be 'out of reach' as things stand.

According to Tuttosport, Juventus are keen to sign Man City midfielder Bernardo Silva on a free transfer next summer after seeing the success Napoli have enjoyed with Kevin De Bruyne.

According to Tuttosport, Juventus is considering Manchester City's Bernardo Silva as a high-profile response to recent signings in Serie A and is gathering initial information from the player's entourage. Bernardo Silva wants to have one last great year at Manchester City and then at the World Cup with Portugal. In the spring, he will start considering his future, with options including Europe, America, or the United Arab Emirates. It is considered unlikely that Manchester City will offer him another contract extension due to his age.

Bernardo Silva, a 31-year-old Portuguese international, will have to find a new club at the end of the season after eight years with Manchester City, as the club's management does not intend to extend his contract which expires next June, according to British media. The midfielder is the second highest-paid player at the club. Benfica, where Silva started as a youth player, is mentioned as the most likely option for his next move, but Juventus is also seen as having a strong chance of securing his signature. His market value is currently estimated by Transfermarkt to be €38 million.
