Juventus may face serious difficulties in trying to sign Manchester City striker Bernard Silva, as they do not qualify for the Champions League. La Gazzetta dello Sport reports about this.

The Portuguese deprived Manchester City of his entry into the rights of a free agent in order to use him as one of the most attractive options on the market. Turinians view this as an important reinforcement, but participation in the most prestigious European Cup is the key reason for the implementation of this transfer.

It appears that Silva himself is prioritizing a possible move to Barcelona, \u200b\u200balthough the Catalan club has not yet shown any specific interest.

Currently, MLS clubs are keeping an eye on the situation and are also ready to compete for the title.

It was previously reported that Juventus is already in contact with the player's agent and is ready to sign his three-year contract with the possibility of an extension. At the same time, without reaching the Champions League, it will be difficult for the Turkish team to overtake Silva and for other top-ranked players to join the team.

At the moment, Luciano Spalletti's team sit fifth in the Serie A standings, one point ahead of Como.
