Manchester City are reportedly not willing to consider any swap deals involving Joao Cancelo and Bernardo Silva with Barcelona's Ousmane Dembele and Sergi Roberto.

Manchester City reportedly have no interest in any swap deals involving Joao Cancelo and Bernardo Silva with Barcelona.

Cancelo enjoyed a stellar campaign with City last season and was named in the PFA Team of the Year, but he was an unused substitute in their Champions League final defeat to Chelsea and is thought to be on Barca's radar.

Bernardo Silva played a prominent role in Man City's run to Porto, but he struggled for consistent starts in the Premier League and reportedly wants to leave the club this summer.

Barcelona have already snapped up Eric Garcia and Sergio Aguero following the expirations of their Man City deals, and there have been rumours of a possible four-way swap deal involving Cancelo, Silva, Sergi Roberto and Ousmane Dembele.

However, the Manchester Evening News reports that no such proposals will be considered this summer, even though Pep Guardiola is supposedly happy to do away with up to seven players in the upcoming window.

Cancelo and Silva were both called up to the Portugal squad for Euro 2020, but the former was forced to withdraw after testing positive for coronavirus.
