The Spanish international hardly featured for Atletico last season, whilst the Man City star unperformed for Pep Guardiola’s side in both the Premier League and in Europe.

Indeed, the Manchester giants have already lost two players from last season, as Sergio Aguero and Eric Garcia both joined FC Barcelona on free transfers.

As per the report, Atletico value Saul at £60m. Furthermore, the Spanish side have proposed to Man City a swap deal involving Silva that would strengthen both clubs from a financial fair play perspective.

Yet despite this, City fans on social media were against Silva leaving the club.

Here’s what some supporters had to say on Twitter about the news…
