One of the most active and aggressive clubs in the Saudi Arabian transfer market — Al Nassr — continues its efforts to further strengthen its squad. The club aims to sign experienced midfielder Bernardo Silva, who has made his mark in European football.
The player, who has proven himself in France and England, is currently playing for Manchester City, and the Saudis are reportedly preparing a serious offer for his transfer. According to reports, Al Nassr is ready to pay the “Citizens” around 30 million euros in compensation for the talented Portuguese footballer.
In addition, Al Nassr’s management plans to sign a three-year professional contract with Bernardo Silva. If the deal is completed, it would not only be a major achievement for the club but also mark a new chapter in the prestige and level of the Saudi Pro League.
It is noteworthy that Bernardo Silva played in 49 matches for Manchester City last season and had an impact in each one. In those matches, the seasoned midfielder scored five goals and provided four assists. Such statistics clearly demonstrate his effectiveness and importance on the pitch.
Bernardo, who is a regular member of the Portuguese national team, has an active contract with Manchester City until the summer of 2026. This means the club is on the verge of deciding whether to let him go or retain him long-term. Moreover, Transfermarkt currently values Silva at 38 million euros.
This process may become one of the more intriguing developments in the transfer market and could open a new direction for deeper cooperation between European and Asian football. Now, fans around the world are closely watching these negotiations and their outcomes.
