Will this Saturday’s UEFA Champions League final be the last time we see Bernardo Silva play for Manchester City?
Alex Crook from Talksport has reported that Bernardo Silva has reportedly told those close to him this will be his last appearance for City.
This news continues the annual summer transfer speculation of will Bernardo stay or get his reported wish to leave the Etihad.
Pol Ballus in the Athletic reported last summer that Bernardo wanted to join Barcelona. But the Catalan giants were unable to raise the required funds to meet Manchester City’s valuation due to the club’s financial situation.
Bernardo has been an integral part of this season’s success. His brace against Real Madrid in Champions League Semi Final second leg at the Etihad was a recent standout moment.
The versatility that is a feature of Bernardo’s game is also vital to Pep Guardiola’s squad. The Portuguese playmaker always gives his all no matter what role he is asked to play for Pep. Whether it’s on the right wing, centrally in midfield or at left back. Bernardo always leaves it all on the pitch.
It’s these qualities that has made Bernardo one of the Manchester City fans favorites. The Portuguese midfielder has always given his all for City. His performances despite his apparent desire to leave Manchester have always been a credit to the player.
Post the Champions League Final, Bernardo Silva’s future will be a story to watch for, whatever the outcome may be.
