Monaco step into race to sign Manchester United target Bruma as Chelsea set sights on Bernardo Silva in transfer merry-go-round
Ligue 1 side Monaco are the latest club to set their sights on Galatasaray’s in-demand winger Bruma.
A source close to the Istanbul based club has revealed to Turkish-Football that Monaco – along with several other European clubs – have also expressed an interest in the Portuguese winger.
Per the source, Monaco are lining up a move for Bruma in the event that Bernardo Silva leaves over the summer transfer window.
Turkish-Football recently revealed that both Tottenham and Manchester United are keeping tabs on the 22-year-old winger.
Meanwhile, the Sunday Times have reported that Monaco’s star winger Bernardo Silva is a £70 million Chelsea transfer target.
Monaco vice-president Vasim Vasilyev has also confirmed that Silva is on the radar of numerous top European clubs.
‘Yes, yes. I really don’t want to go into details, but for all our major players, we do have interest from major European clubs,” Vasilyev told The Times when asked about Silva’s availability.
“This is not the right time to talk about it. Let’s finish the season and then we can look at our project for next season.”

Bruma’s long-term future at the Istanbul based club is in doubt following a training ground bust-up with manager Igor Tudor.
Galatasaray boss Igor Tudor dropped the winger from the Lion’s squad which drew 1-1 with Rizespor last weekend.
Bruma has seven goals and eight assists to his name for Galatasaray this season.
