As the summer approaches, one question is becoming more and more important at Manchester City: will Bernardo Silva stay or leave? Fans are speculating, the press is publishing various versions, but the team's head coach Pep Guardiola has openly stated that he does not yet have any concrete information on this issue.
Pep's answer is simple, but very accurate: "No. I have no idea. I'm telling the truth. But I told him to let me know if he comes to a decision. That's all I know. I don't know about the rest." That is, Guardiola is not an "insider" right now - he is waiting for a decision like everyone else.
The seriousness of the situation is that Bernardo's current contract with the "city" ends in the summer. So, it's time for a decision for both the club and the player: either a new contract or a new page.
Bernardo Silva is not an ordinary midfielder. He has been playing for Manchester City since the summer of 2017, and during this time he has become one of the most consistent, most "reliable" figures in the club's history. The numbers confirm this: 442 games, 74 goals, 78 assists. Such statistics are typical for a player who has been "unstoppable" every season.
For fans, there is one concern on this subject: if Bernardo leaves, will some of the pace, pressure and intelligent moves on the field of the team disappear? Because he is one of those players who "work invisibly": always close to the ball, always in the right place, always for the team.
But so far, no one can say for sure. One thing is certain: for City fans, the summer transfer window will be more than just news, it will be a real test of nerves. As Guardiola said, everything now depends on the news from Bernardo.
