      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.

      But during his time at Elland Road, Raphinha had become one of the best players outside of the ‘big six’.
      And it is thought that Newcastle would be interested in giving him a chance to revive his career in the Premier League.
      According to Gerard Romero on the Jijantes FC Twitch channel, the Magpies have suggested they would be willing to offer Barcelona a £70m fee to wrap up a deal.

      And many fans think that the Magpies would be paying well over the odds to sign him.

      A second wrote: “Raphinha would be a great signing but £70m seems very steep.
      “A lot less risk with him over [Moussa] Diaby as he’s played Premier League previously, but Diaby 5 years younger and probably a higher ceiling at a cheaper price.”
      A Barca supporter added: “For performance, he is our best winger this year, but let’s go, for 80 million I will take him on a piggyback to Newcastle if necessary.” More

      However, to be able to afford the mercurial Argentinian forward, Barcelona must reduce the wage bill by a reported £180million.
      This reduction would allow the club to make some more significant moves this summer after a financially tricky period.
      Over the last couple of years, members of the squad have taken pay cuts in order to help the club.
      But according to Sport, Franck Kessie and Andreas Christensen are two that have recently rejected decreases to their salaries.
      READ MORE IN FOOTBALL
      The duo have only been at the club since last summer after joining on free transfers from AC Milan and Chelsea.
      And the report suggests that the proposed pay cut have not gone down well with the players arguing that they rejected larger contracts to join the club in the first place.
      It goes on to say that Kessie and Christensen think that the contract change is unwarranted considering their short time at the club.
      This means that Barcelona would have to consider different options to trim their expenses.

      Gavi, 18, is already a key member of the Barcelona squad set to win LaLiga this season.
      But an ongoing contract issue thanks to Barca’s salary cap limit meant his first-team registration was cancelled and forced him to revert to his old Juvenil A youth deal.
      That could have made him available when the transfer window reopened, possibly even on a free.
      Chelsea are even said to have made contact and met with the player and his family to discuss a move.

      Manchester United, Liverpool and Bayern Munich have also been monitoring the situation.
      But Sport report Gavi sat down with Xavi and told them the Barcelona boss wants to stay put at the Nou Camp.
      Xavi apparently reassured the youngster he “cannot imagine his midfield without Gavi” in their private conversation.
      And despite ongoing issues with the contract saga, the midfielder is said to be fully committed to the cause.

      Barcelona’s director of football Mateu said earlier in April: “Gavi renewed at the time for four seasons and he has three more to go.
      “For sure he’s going to honour his contract. What’s more, we are convinced that not only will he fulfil his contract, he is going to finish his career at Barcelona.
      “That’s what he wants, what our fans want and what we want.
      “We have absolute peace of mind. The player renewed, we are going to register him for sure, and for our part there is no problem.”
      Gavi joined Barcelona aged 11 in 2015 after spells with La Liara and Real Betis.
      The midfielder made his first-team debut in 2021 and has racked up four goals in 89 appearances.
      He already has 19 senior Spain caps, with the third of his three goals coming in the 7-0 thrashing of Costa Rice in Qatar to become his nation’s youngest World Cup scorer.
      Gavi proved his incredible talent by being crowned Kopa Trophy winner and the Golden Boy in 2022 after his breakthrough season. More
