Transfer talk surrounding Bernardo Silva is intensifying, with reports suggesting Atletico are monitoring the Manchester City midfielder closely. The player has caught the attention of several scouts as other clubs prepare for a potentially active transfer window. Until a fee and conditions are finalised, the deal remains vulnerable to disruption - especially if Como 1907, Galatasaray and Barcelona decide to make a formal offer of their own in the coming days. Atletico look balanced this season - 1.68 goals scored and 0.92 goals conceded per game. Bernardo Silva would be expected to bring control and consistency to help push them to another level. Manchester City continue to be linked with Morgan Gibbs-White, Igor Thiago Nascimento Rodrigues and Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall while Atletico are also rumoured to be tracking Richarlison, Robert Lewandowski and Marc Cucurella.
