Bernardo Silva has an important role to play for Manchester City this season. As his team’s captain, Bernardo Silva is tasked with leading by example and setting an example for his team. So far, he has done that with his actions on the pitch. Although not every one of Bernardo Silva’s performances this season has been from the top drawer. But his effort and application cannot be questioned. It is clear that Bernardo Silva is an integral player for his team this season.
Looking ahead to the summer, Bernardo Silva’s contract expires at the end of this season. There seems to be a host of clubs lining up to sign the Manchester City captain for free when his contract expires.
Ahad Shaukat has reported for CaughtOffside that a host of clubs are interested in signing Bernardo Silva at the end of the 25/26 season. As per Shaukat’s report, Barcelona and Juventus are interested in signing Bernardo Silva. Shaukat further reports that Saudi Pro League clubs Al Ahli, Al Qadsiah, and Al Nassr are also eager to pursue a move for the Manchester City captain. As of now, it remains unclear what Bernardo Silva’s plans are for the future.
There is no doubt that Bernardo Silva is close to the end of his Manchester City career. At 31 years of age, and having won every trophy available while at the club, there aren’t many more mountains for the Portuguese international to climb at City. Leading Pep Guardiola’s side back to the top is Bernardo’s mission for this season. But after this season, it remains unclear what the future holds for the City captain.
What is clear is that Bernardo Silva will have no shortage of options to consider if he does intend to leave Manchester City at the end of this season. Given what he has achieved at City, Bernardo has more than earned the right to decide where he plays next. It seems that he could have a variety of options to consider if he does decide to call time on his City career.
