City Are ‘Pushing Hard’ To Sign Arsenal Ace Who Is Being Targeted As Bernardo Silva’s Replacement

Manchester City are “pushing hard” to secure the signature of Arsenal winger Bukayo Saka, according to 90min.com.

The Citizens are looking to reinforce their options in the middle of the park, with Bernardo Silva expected to leave the Etihad at the end of the season.


Silva’s departure may see Phil Foden being used by manager Pep Guardiola in central midfield, leaving a space open for the likes of Saka to take his place on the wing.

There is still a lot of uncertainty over whether the Citizens have a realistic chance of signing the Gunners star. The 21-year-old is currently locked in contract negotiations but he has less than two years remaining on his current deal.

90min.com claim Arsenal are “worried” that Saka could be tempted by a move to the Premier League champions and are urging him to sign on to fresh terms. However, despite the two sides having been in talks for a number of months, no breakthrough has been found so far. This is certainly a story to keep an eye on.
