Standup9ja: Bernardo Silva Joins Manchester City From
Monaco, For £43 Million
This is just one of many transfers to come for Manchester
City, as the club confirms the signing of playmaker Bernardo Silva on a
five-year deal.
This comes on the back of the recent exodus at the club,
that saw Clichy, Navas, Sagna and Caballero released.
The former Monaco player joins Guardiola’s side for a fee of
£43 million , which is expected to rise after add-ons.
“Manchester City are delighted to confirm Bernardo Silva
will join the Club from Monaco on July 1,” City announced in a statement.
“The Portuguese playmaker will arrive at the Etihad having
just helped the French side to the Ligue 1 title and the Champions League
semi-finals.”
“It feels great. To be honest I’m now at one of the best
teams in the world. To be part of this club and to have this opportunity is
great,” he said.
“I’m very happy to be part of Manchester City’s team and I
look forward to trying to do my best to help the team reach their goals.
“If not the best coach in the world, he is one of the best.
“Of course when you have the opportunity of being trained by
Guardiola, you don’t say no.
“As we all know, what he did in Barcelona and Bayern Munich
was amazing and we expect also here that he will win titles. It’s great to be
working with him and to have this opportunity.”
