MANCHESTER CITY have slapped a £75million price tag on the head of forward Bernardo Silva, according to reports.
Barcelona have been heavily linked with the Portuguese playmaker, 28, for 12 months.

They attempted to sign him last summer and returned their interest in January, but were unable to prise him away from the Etihad.
Now, as they prepare for a third attempt at the end of the season, 90min have revealed he will set them back £75m.
PSG are also monitoring Silva‘s situation and could hijack Barcelona‘s move if the LaLiga leaders are unable to finance a deal.
The attacker, who arrived in England from Monaco for £43m, is under contract with Man City until 2025, so the Premier League champions are in no rush to sell him.
But they have shown in the past with the likes of Leroy Sane, Oleksandr Zinchenko, Gabriel Jesus and Raheem Sterling that they are willing to strike deals at the right price.
Silva was understood to be keen on a move to Spain last year.
Yet despite having his head turned, the ex-Monaco man has not let that stop him from enjoying another stellar season with Man City.
He has contributed five goals and seven assists for Pep Guardiola‘s men, appearing in 47 of their 51 games in all competitions.

Silva has collected a vast amount of silverware since arriving in the Premier League.
He has won four league titles, the FA Cup and four Carabao Cups.
And Man City are still on course for a treble this season as they are in pole position for the Premier League, into the final of the FA Cup and semi-final of the Champions League.
