Silva to leave Man City at end of season
Bernardo Silva will leave Manchester City at the end of the season, the Premier League club announced Thursday as they hailed his "incalculable" contribution to our "greatest sustained period of success".
The 31-year-old Portuguese playmaker, who is the current club captain, joined City from Monaco in 2017 and has gone on to make over 450 appearances for Pep Guardiola's side, winning 15 major trophies, including six Premier League titles and one Champions League.
He has also scored 76 goals and provided 77 assists to date.
He recently moved into the top 10 of all-time City appearance holders, overtaking several notable former players, including David Silva, Paul Power and Willie Donachie.
"Manchester City can confirm Bernardo Silva will leave the club this summer," said a City statement.
"Bernardo will now focus on seeking to try and ensure his remaining time at City ends with even more silverware, with Pep Guardiola's side still very much in the hunt to win both the Premier League title and the FA Cup."
Silva, confirming his departure from the Etihad on his Instagram page, wrote: "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!"
