Barcelona 'very upset' with Man City amid triple swoop attempt and more transfer rumours
04.09.2023 - 19:27 / manchestereveningnews.co.uk
Barcelona chiefs are 'very upset' with Manchester City after a summer in which the Blues tried to sign three of their young stars, according to reports in Spain.
Some of City's players were linked with Barcelona this summer, with two players heading from the Etihad to the Nou Camp. Ilkay Gundogan joined the Blaugrana on a free after his contract expired, while Joao Cancelo arrived on a deadline-day season-long loan.
However, according to Mundo Deportivo, Barcelona president Joan Laporta is among a number of people at the club unhappy with City's reported move for a trio of youngsters. Pep Guardiola's side were said to be interested in Lamine Yamal, Alejandro Balde and Pau Cubarsi.
The report also suggests that City leaked news that they knew nothing of a loan deal for Cancelo with days left of the window, despite his agent Jorge Mendes having everything tied up already. Xavi's side did also want to sign Bernardo Silva this summer, however, the midfielder decided to sign a new deal with the Blues instead.

Elsewhere, Portuguese outlet Record reports that City had a representative watching a match between Porto and Arouca on Sunday.
The Primeira Liga game ended 1-1 at the Estadio do Dragao in Porto, with the home side netting an equaliser in the 19th minute of added time. A scout from City was said to have been at the game, although the report does not state who they were watching.
Porto are not in City's Champions League group, ruling out a possible general scouting mission. Instead, it is suggested they are looking into the Portuguese market.
