"When you are a football player it's short, you don't realise it, immediately it's over. Of course, I would love for Bernardo to continue here, he is a special player in the dressing room for me, but I don't know what is going to happen. I don't want to stop the desire of a player but, at the same time, I'm just a little part of the club, you have to talk to the club, I have never ever been involved in that, and what the club decides for me is OK."

Giovanni Simeone shone in Serie A last season and caught the attention of Napoli, who are now understood to be closing in on a deal for his services. A transfer fee of around €10m is understood to have been agreed between Die Adler and Paris Saint-Germain, with the 21-year-old winger set to sign a five-year deal. It is reported that Tottenham Hotspur have no interest in his services, despite previous links suggesting that a move to north London was possible. It is understood that while his salary will remain the same, Busquets will see his payments deferred as well as receiving instalments over the course of the season. Sources say at this stage there is no indication it will come to that and president Joan Laporta continues to transmit optimism that all seven players will be registered in time, but Barca are cutting it fine before the start of the season. Arsenal and Liverpool have reportedly shown an interest in the 19-year-old, but no offer has been made so far. There appear to be few options for the Portugal forward, with Atletico Madrid, Bayern Munich and Chelsea having distanced themselves from his signing.

With three days to go until the new campaign starts, however, neither has been registered with the Spanish league.

Gomez was a standout performer in the Belgian First Division last season, contributing to 17 goals in 39 appearances.

Manchester City are actively searching for a new left-back before the transfer window closes after missing out on Marc Cucurella.
The Blues walked away from a transfer for Brighton left-back Marc Cucurella, refusing to meet the Seagulls' asking price. Instead, Gomez would be assessed on arrival to determine his best route for development, with a loan out the most likely option. There is a chance he would stay at City and be involved in Pep Guardiola's squad if he impressed the coaching staff, however the club are looking at other senior options for a new left-back before the September 1 transfer deadline.
Anderlecht have rejected Manchester City's second offer for Sergio Gomez, although discussions are set to continue between the clubs.

Fabrizio Romano has given the proposed transfer the 'here we go' treatment as he revealed that the two clubs had reached a 'verbal agreement' for the Spaniard's transfer. The defender scored five goals and registered 12 assists in 34 games last campaign, representing a goal contribution every other game- a remarkable return when it is considered that he was playing in defence.

Sergio Gomez is steps away from becoming Manchester City's newest recruit, as Pep Guardiola's men close in on the Spanish left-back.
Manchester City have no direct target for the left-back spot after losing out on Marc Cucurella to Chelsea, and may have to speed up Sergio Gomez involvement ahead of schedule. Sergio Gomez is steps away from becoming Manchester City's newest recruit, as Pep Guardiola's men close in on the Spanish left-back. According to Sam Lee of the Athletic, Manchester City are closing in on the £15million signing of Anderlecht full-back Sergio Gomez ahead of the new season.
As Premier League champions Manchester City close in on a move for RSC Anderlecht's Sergio Gomez, we analyse the Spaniard's abilties.
It’s surprising to hear he wouldn’t be part of the city first team if he signed, especially given there aren’t many other internal options at the position at this point in time. He had 10 assists in the League within the first four months of the season. He has the safe option of Josh Cullen inside, but he uses his right foot to play a tough pass into the channel. It’s easy to imagine him punishing teams down the flanks as with Erling Haaland’s arrival, teams will have to overload the center to try and stop his elite movement. He’s an accurate crosser who can get power on the ball from standstill positions. Analysing the defensive nature of full-backs can be difficult, especially in teams that dominate the ball. Players who attempt the aggressive option and convert it regularly are hard to find, but Gomez ticks this box. Essentially, it shows Gomez is playing in a system that uses him high and wide. Gomez was arguably Anderlecht’s most important player this year. @ManCityremain in the market for a senior recruit at left-back and are considering various options. A system which requires wingers to stay narrow will fall apart without dynamic and pacey full backs, but Gomez’s left hand side was pivotal to Anderlecht’s attacking effectiveness. Take the sequence below.
Manchester City fans took to Twitter to react to the news that the club have reached an agreement to sign Sergio Gomez.
Here are some of the reactions from Twitter. Following the sale of Oleksandr Zinchenko to Arsenal, City failed to meet Brighton's asking price for Marc Cucurella, who has since joined Chelsea in deal worth £63m. Promoted Stories

Manchester City have agreed a fee of £11m plus add-ons with RSC Anderlecht for left-back Sergio Gomez, reports Sky Sports.
Manchester City will assess whether Gomez is ready for first-team football or needs a loan move to further his development. Cucurella’s departure to Chelsea last week prompted Pep Guardiola and Manchester City to look out for alternatives in a bid to strengthen the defence. He thrived under former Man City skipper Vincent Kompany, impressing with his pace, crossing ability and attacking instincts.
Manchester City have agreed a fee for Anderlecht left-back Sergio Gomez, who won their Player of the Year award last season.
His return of seven goals and 15 assists from left-back last season shows a player who didn't take long to add his natural attacking abilities to a new position. He also still has his speed of execution, Sergio is someone who can speed up the attacking game. Sergio can do that, thanks to his great handling of the ball. David Fernandez, a youth coach of Gomez's, said to have 'discovered' the Spaniard, told HLN last year: “Sergio was six years old when I first saw him at work at his first club Badalona – a local team in Barcelona. I was a youth coach at Espanyol Barcelona at the time and I did not hesitate, we immediately went to get him. It could have happened in the semi-finals of the World Cup. Sergio has the necessary mentality to improve after such a mistake. That is where the club's extensive scouting system will identify whether a quality player has the right attitude to back up their on-pitch talent.

It has been suggested that Manchester City would still look for another full-back as they viewed him as a development player but that may not be the case now as they are willing to keep hold of him but still want another full-back this window. Manchester City are very close to announcing the signing of their first left-back of the transfer window with Sergio Gomez now in the North-West to complete his deal to the Premier League Champions according to a report. One alternative option that the Premier League Champions found was Sergio Gomez from Anderlecht and now according to Jason Burt from The Telegraph the Spaniard is in the North-West of England ready to complete the transfer to City.
City's new left-back might get loaned out, but here's what fans can expect from him when he does play for the club.
He is aggressive and tenacious when it comes to one-v-one defending and has been taught some tricks of the trade by Kompany. “The timing when you arrive from behind is key and it is what I have improved the most,” he said in that Marca interview. It’s very similar to this example from his first season at Huesca, in 2019, when he played on the left wing. He saw that I had a lot of pace to get up and down. Against Northern Ireland’s under-21s in October, he starts on the right and checks inside… Anderlecht is a historic club that puts faith in young players and, as well as that, the new position I was going to play was very exciting. He was a pacy winger during his eight years coming through the ranks at Barcelona before he moved to Dortmund aged 17, then had a loan at Huesca, where he played… First of all, this driving run for Spain’s under-21s against Russia in November. “The coach believes that left-back suits me best so I can continue growing. And he’s only been a left-back for about a year. Left wing, right wing, an “interior” playing inside and even right-back, Gomez is certainly versatile. For starters, he plays on the right wing for Spain’s under-21s these days, taking people on, cutting inside and getting shots away.
