It had been expected, and now it is official. Arriving in 2017 from Monaco, Bernardo Silva will not continue his journey with Manchester City. At the end of his contract, the Portuguese midfielder will leave the club this summer, as confirmed by the Cityzens’ management.
Goodbye Bernardo Silva. In an official statement, the club praised the player’s immense impact during one of the most glorious periods in its history: “Manchester City confirms that Bernardo Silva will leave the club this summer. The Portuguese playmaker joined City in 2017 and made 451 appearances during a remarkable nine-year spell with the Blues. The contribution of this 31-year-old to our greatest period of success is invaluable.”
Emotional Farewell After a Trophy-Filled Era
After nine seasons filled with trophies and unforgettable moments, the time has come to turn the page. Bernardo Silva did not hide his emotion in a heartfelt message addressed to the supporters.
“It wasn’t too bad!” he wrote. “Dear Manchester City fans, nine years ago when I arrived, I was chasing a childhood dream: to succeed in life and achieve great things. This city and this club have given me far more than that, far more than I ever dared to hope for. Our victories and shared achievements will remain forever in my heart. The Centurions, the domestic quadruple, the treble, four consecutive league titles, and so much more… it wasn’t too bad!”
The Portuguese star also thanked the club, his teammates, and the fans for these unforgettable years: “To the supporters, your unconditional support over the years is something I will never forget. My main goal as a player has always been to play with passion so that you can be proud and feel well represented on the pitch.” With 451 matches, 76 goals, and 77 assists, Bernardo Silva leaves a massive legacy at Manchester City. Now, the question remains where he will go next. Linked for years with clubs like Barcelona and Juventus, he is expected to stay in Europe despite interest from Saudi Arabia. One thing is certain: a huge chapter is closing at City.
