Manchester City's new captain, Bernardo Silva, may leave the team at the end of the current season. The 31-year-old Portuguese footballer's current contract expires on June 30, 2026, and there are already various speculations about his future.
As is known, Josep Guardiola was previously prepared to part ways with Silva. However, over time, the coach's opinion changed dramatically. Now Guardiola wants the club's management to offer Bernardo a long-term contract. He noted that Silva has become an important figure for the team not only as a leader, but also with his experience and responsibility on the field.
At the same time, the publication TalkSport reports that the probability of further cooperation between the parties is underestimated. Because Silva intends to earn more money in the final stage of his career. For this purpose, he is seriously interested in joining one of the Saudi Arabian clubs. According to reports, Arab clubs are preparing a huge financial offer for him.
Bernardo Silva has been playing for Manchester City since 2017. During this period, he won all prestigious competitions with the club, from the English Premier League to the Champions League. The Portuguese footballer has repeatedly delighted fans with decisive goals and assists during the Citizens' most crucial periods.
The main question now is: will City's new captain remain in European football or choose to take advantage of financial opportunities in Saudi Arabia?
