Bernardo Silva is finally set to sign a new contract with Manchester City, ending Barcelona’s hopes.

Barcelona fans are in for some bad news as their summer target is set to sign a new contract with Manchester City.

According to reputable transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, Bernardo Silva has agreed a new three-year contract with Manchester City until June 2026. Manchester City are now hoping that the 28-year-old attacking midfielder will sign before the end of the week and commit his future to the club. With this contract, the Portuguese star seems to want to dedicate all the best of his career to the blue half of Manchester.

Fans all know that Barcelona has been targeting Bernardo Silva for a long time. The Spanish side have tried to sign him for the past three seasons but have failed.

Bernardo is a very important player in Manchester City’s squad. With a small body of 1m73, the Portuguese player always makes opponents sweat to keep up with him, that’s why fans often call him “the wizard”. After 7 seasons with the team, Silva has scored 49 goals and 41 assists, contributing greatly to Man City’s treble this season.

Obviously, with Silva’s importance, Pep will not want him to leave. As for Barca, with the difficult economic situation, it is difficult for them to pursue quality goals this summer. Xavi is considering young options from La Masia, most notably striker Lamine Yamal, who is only 16 years old. The Spanish coach considers Yamal the most viable option for the Catalan team at this time.
