Pep Guardiola was only interested in an outright sale of the Portuguese

Manchester City rejected Atletico Madrid’s offer of Saul Niguez plus cash for Bernardo Silva, reports the Daily Star.

City were only interested in an outright sale of Silva, who has stayed with the club through the end of the transfer window.

Saul, meanwhile, joined Chelsea on a season-long loan with a £30 million ($41m) option to buy.
