Bernardo Silva signs new Manchester City contract until 2026

Portuguese midfielder Bernardo Silva signs a new Manchester City contract that will keep him at the club until 2026. The 29-year-old has signed a three-year deal with the club.

Moreover, Silva helped the club win a Treble last season. The Portuguese have racked up a whopping 308 appearances so far for Pep Guardiola’s side. He also scored three crucial goals for City to help them win their first-ever Champions League title.

Speaking to the club’s website Bernardo said: “I’ve had six incredible years at Manchester City and I’m delighted to extend my time here. 

“Winning the Treble last season was extremely special and it’s exciting to be part of a squad where there is such a hunger and passion. Success makes you want even more, and this Club gives me that opportunity to keep on winning.

“I love the manager, my team-mates and the fans and hope we can share even more great memories in the coming years.”

Bernardo Silva signs new Manchester City contract and snubs Barcelona and PSG interest

According to several reports, Barcelona and PSG were very much interested in signing him this summer. Furthermore, Saudi Pro League clubs were also keeping an eye on him.

But now he has rejected a move, as Barcelona cannot afford him, and he has no desire to play for PSG or any other SPL club.

Although a move to the Catalan giants may be on the cards for next summer as he has been a Barca fan since he was a kid. For now, Silva has committed his future to the Premier League champions.

The Treble winners signed him from Monaco in 2017 for a fee of €50 million. During his time in Manchester, he has won the Premier League title five times. Moreover, he finally has his hands on the Champions League trophy.

Silva has provided 59 assists and bagged 55 goals for Man City in his six years at the club.
