Bernardo Silva has extended his contract with Manchester City, committing to the club until 2026.
Having made the switch from Monaco to Man City in 2017, Silva’s trophy cabinet consists of five Premier League titles, two FA Cups, four League Cups, and the prestigious Champions League trophy.
In a statement regarding his decision to stay, Silva highlighted that the extension offers him the exciting prospect of continuing his winning trajectory.
The Portugal attacking midfielder says he is staying put at City because it “gives me that opportunity to keep winning”.
