David Silva has been in talks with former side Valencia over a potential move, but talks have stalled recently due to the suspension of football.
The Spaniard left Spain 10 years ago to join Manchester City in what would mark the start of their dominance in English football.
ESPN now claim that Valencia have moved to re-sign their former player but a deal is not exactly straightforward as it stands.
The coronavirus crisis has brought about uncertainty and one of that is regarding player contracts.
FIFA have suggested contracts due to end on June 30 should be extended until the season can be completed but there is concern among Premier League bosses that the guidance is not legally enforceable.
Meaning, Silva would have to agree a short-term extension with City or leave on the 30th of June regardless, when his contract expires.
That has made a potential deal stall. with the Spanish side waiting to see how everything all plays out.
The report concludes that Valencia have offered Silva a three-year-contract and MLS side owned by Beckham, Inter Miami, are also interested in the deal.
