‘A legacy that will forever be cherished in my heart’ – Bernardo Silva confirms he will leave Manchester City | OneFootball

Bernardo Silva has confirmed that he will leave Manchester City this summer after nine years at the club.

The Portuguese midfielder has made 451 appearances for City, winning 19 trophies including six Premier League titles, one UEFA Champions League, two FA Cup triumphs, five Carabao Cup successes

“When I arrived 9 years ago, I was following a dream of a little boy, wanting to succeed in life, wanting to achieve great things,” Bernardo Silva said on his social media.

“This city and this club gave me much more than that, much more than I ever hoped for. What we won and achieved together is a legacy that will forever be cherished in my heart. The Centurions, the domestic quadruple, the Treble, the Four In A Row and much more… It wasn’t that bad.

“In a few months it’s time to say goodbye to the city where not only we won so much as a football club, but also where I started my marriage and my family. From the bottom of my heart, Ines and Carlota, thank you!

“To the club, Pep, the staff and all my teammates these 9 years, thank you for all the memories and for letting me be a part of this journey for so long. The atmosphere we created every day in the training ground made me feel at home and a part of a big family. Let’s enjoy together these last weeks and fight for what this season still brings us.”
