Gianluca Di Marzio brings bad news for Benfica about Bernardo Silva | OneFootball

Gianluca Di Marzio brought information that leaves Benfica fans worried. According to the expert, clubs like Como 1907, Juventus, and Napoli have entered the race for Bernardo Silva. This sudden interest from Serie A promises to greatly complicate Rui Costa's aspirations to bring back the player trained at Seixal.

Bernardo Silva with many suitors

Besides the Italian contenders, there is another strong candidate in the equation. Galatasaray is also closely monitoring the situation of the Portuguese international, showing a real willingness to make a tempting offer. The entry of the Turkish club into this financial dispute further reduces the Eagles' room for maneuver to secure the desired signing.

The left-footed player has never hidden his deep desire to wear the Sacred Mantle again at a later stage in his career. However, faced with the interest of so many European giants with greater financial power, this romantic scenario seems increasingly complex. The dream of seeing the magician at Estádio da Luz may have to wait.

Return to Benfica may have to wait

The midfielder's contract with Manchester City ends at the end of the season, and he will be free to decide his professional future. Recently, agent Jorge Mendes stated that it was still too early to address this topic. Uncertainty looms, but staying in the elite of the old continent seems to be the player's priority.

This season, playing for Manchester City, Bernardo Silva – valued at 27 million euros – played 28 games: 21 in the Premier League, five in the Champions League, one in the FA Cup, and another in the League Cup. In the 1,924 minutes he was Pep Guardiola's choice, the former Benfica player scored one goal and made two assists.
