Cristiano Ronaldo, Harry Kane, De Bruyne, Salah, Pogba, Bruno Fernandes Fernandes, Van Dijk, Foden, Ruben Dias … are some of the names on the long list of stars who play in the Premier League. Nevertheless, Guardiola has surrendered to Bernardo Silva. After the great performance of the Portuguese crescent against Aston Villa and his extraordinary start to the season, The Manchester City manager did not hesitate to describe his pupil as “the best player” in the English league: “Is the best. He was the best of the season when we got 98 points, three seasons ago, and he’s the best now. He has scored a fantastic goal. When a player has this quality, it depends on him. He is a player of another level, in all aspects ”.
These praises from Guardiola towards Bernardo Silva come just a few months after the Portuguese crescent was about to leave Manchester City. He did not feel at a good moment under Guardiola’s orders and his wish was to play in the Spanish League. In fact, Atlético was, together with Barcelona, the club most interested in taking over their services. The contacts did not finish bearing fruit and Bernardo Silva had to resign himself to continue at City. Far from lowering his arms and being carried away, the Portuguese star has taken a step forward and has recovered his best level. So far this season, he has scored five goals and has given two assists.
Bernardo Silva has a contract with Manchester City until 2025, but it would not be surprising if next summer he was reconnected with a Spanish club, since his wish is to play in Laliga one day.
