Bernado Silva eager to leave Manchester City this summer

Manchester City midfielder Bernardo Silva has reportedly asked his club to allow him to leave this summer.

The Portugal international has been the subject of speculation since last July and could have joined Barcelona last summer. But City were not interested in selling the player and held firm despite strong pressure from Barcelona.

However, according to reports in Spain, the 28-year-old will ask to leave this summer and is prepared to listen to approaches from Barcelona or Real Madrid.

Pep Guardiola loves the player and wants him to stay. But as seen with the loan departure of João Cancelo, Guardiola isn’t one who will keep a player against their wish. Should the player insist on leaving and the right offer comes, City will be open to selling.

Should Silva leave, City will speed up their pursuit of Borussia Dortmund midfielder Jude Bellingham. The Premier League giants are also interested in Leicester City’s James Madison, while a move for Chelsea’s Ben Chilwell has also been mooted as a cover for Cancelo.

Manchester United want to sign Federico Valverde in the summer

Manchester United reportedly want to sign Real Madrid midfielder Federico Valverde this summer.

According to reports in South America, the Red Devils will make a fresh bid for the Uruguayan in the summer after failing to sign him in the January transfer window.

Manchester United lost influential midfielder Christian Eriksen to a three-month injury just before the winter window closed. To cover for the Danish international, they approached Real Madrid for the 24-year-old, but Los Blancos were uninterested in parting ways with the player, who is a vital part of the team.

However, according to El Nacional, Erik ten Hag’s side will return for Valverde in the summer,  with an €80m bid on the table for the player.

United and Real Madrid did business last summer when the Spanish side sold long-time midfielder Casemiro to them. But it appears that another deal is imminent this summer if El Nacional is to be believed.

Paris Saint-Germain vs Toulouse: Match Preview and Expert Football Prediction

Paris Saint-Germain will continue their defence of the Ligue 1 title this Saturday when they welcome mid-table Toulouse to Parc des Princes.

The hosts ended a run of two league games without a win (D1, L1) with a 3-1 away win over Montpellier on Wednesday. The win means they come into this round of games sitting five points ahead of Marseille, their closest challengers.

Christophe Galtier’s men should feel confident of getting a win here against a Toulouse side they trounced 3-0 back in August. Also, having not tasted league defeat at home in 32 games (W27, D5), they can be backed to record a win here.

So, a Sure Home Win Prediction will be the best bet in this game.

Despite this, Toulouse are no pushovers themselves. The visitors are currently on their longest unbeaten start to a calendar year in Ligue 1 action for over a decade (W4, D1). Also, their 4-1 over Troyes in midweek in the Coup De France means they are unbeaten in seven games since the turn of the year (W6, D1).

But it seems unlikely Toulouse will go a step further in their unbeaten run as they have lost their last two visits to the current top-three Ligue 1 teams by a 3+ goal margin. They’ve also lost by four clear goals in two of their previous three trips to the Parc des Princes, potentially providing a psychological block.

Everton vs Arsenal: Match Preview and Expert Football Prediction

Everton will look to begin life under Sean Dyche with a win when they welcome Premier League leaders Arsenal to Goodison Park on Saturday.

The Toffees sacked former boss Frank Lampard last week after a run of poor results that has left them without a win in their last eight league matches (D2, L6) – their longest winless Premier League (PL) run since October 1994.

As a result, the hosts currently sit inside the relegation zone but just two points below the safety line. They will come into this game desperate to get off a flying start under their new manager, who is famous for his strict standards.

Arsenal will hope to keep their unbeaten run in the Premier League for another game when they visit Merseyside on Saturday. The Gunners have not tasted defeat in the league in 13 games (W11, D2) and are currently leading the title race by five points, having played a game less than closest challengers Manchester City.

However, they did lose 1-0 away to Pep Guardiola’s side in the FA Cup last weekend. But given that Mikel Arteta’s side have won each of their last three Premier League away games – which included victory in the North London Derby – and did so with a margin of 2+ goals in each, they will fancy their chances of recording a win with Over 2.5 Goals in this game.
