Saudi Arabia's big offer for Bernardo Silva: Will Al-Hilal have a new star?

Manchester City's experienced Portuguese midfielder Bernardo Silva could soon turn a new page. After playing at a high level for years for one of Europe's strongest teams, the City, Silva is now being strongly linked with a move to Saudi Arabia.

According to reports, one of the leading Saudi clubs, Al-Hilal, has shown serious interest in the player. According to the French publication Footmercato, the Saudis have been closely monitoring Bernardo Silva for the past few months. They intend to make him one of the central figures of the team.

Manchester City is currently implementing a strategy to rejuvenate the team. This increases the possibility of experienced players like Bernardo leaving. Silva's current contract with the club runs until the summer of 2025. The Transfermarkt portal estimates the player's market value at around 38 million euros.

Silva joined City from Monaco in the summer of 2017 and has won several titles with the club. In the 2023/2024 season, he played in 49 matches for the team, scoring 5 goals and providing 4 assists.

Other leading Saudi clubs are also active in the transfer market. In particular, AC Milan defender Theo Hernandez, Napoli striker Victor Osimhen and Portugal legend Cristiano Ronaldo are also rumored to be on the radar of Saudi clubs.

If Al-Hilal can complete the transfer of Bernardo Silva, the Saudi championship will have another leading star. The skill of the proven European player in Asia is sure to arouse new interest and intrigue. Read 'Zamin' on Telegram!
