Manchester City legend Sergio Aguero is hopeful that Bernardo Silva will stay at the club beyond the summer, despite the Portuguese international having a £50m release clause in his contract. Aguero praised Silva’s talent and versatility, hoping that he will choose to remain at City. However, it has been rumored that Silva is seeking a new challenge in another country, with clubs like Barcelona, Real Madrid, Paris Saint-Germain, Bayern Munich, and Arsenal all reportedly interested in signing him.
Silva has spent seven successful seasons at Manchester City, winning 14 major trophies, including league titles and the Champions League. The inclusion of a release clause in his contract was seen as a way to allow him to explore other opportunities if he desires. It is not only Silva who may be leaving the club this summer, as there are also doubts about the futures of Kalvin Phillips and Kevin De Bruyne. Phillips is expected to be sold once his loan spell at West Ham ends, while talks over a contract extension for De Bruyne have not yet begun, with interest from teams in Saudi Arabia and the United States.
As speculation mounts about potential departures from Manchester City, Aguero and others are hopeful that players like Bernardo Silva, Kalvin Phillips, and Kevin De Bruyne will choose to stay at the club. While offers from top European clubs could be tempting, Aguero believes that Silva deserves to make his own decision about his future. The uncertainty surrounding Silva, Phillips, and De Bruyne’s futures adds to the speculation about possible changes to City’s midfield ahead of the next season.
