Atletico Madrid make first offer for Man City attacker Bernardo Silva

Atletico Madrid are keen on Manchester City attacker Bernardo Silva.

In England, it's been suggested City are prepared to sell Bernardo this summer to fund plans of finding a new striker signing after the departure of Sergio Aguero for Barcelona.

The Times says Atletico are keen and have already made a first offer for the midfielder.

The LaLiga champs have suggested a straight swap involving Saul Niguez for Bernardo.

However, such a proposal isn't ideal for City, which are seeking a cash deal to help with plans to fund a new striker addition.
