Bernardo Silva Considers Returning to Benfica

Portuguese media reports have revealed that Manchester City star Bernardo Silva is keen on returning to his former club Benfica during the upcoming summer transfer window, in a move that could create significant buzz in the summer market.

According to "A Bola," the 30-year-old Bernardo Silva is prioritizing the option to return to Benfica, despite being under contract with Manchester City until the summer of 2026.

Reports indicate that the Portuguese star is willing to significantly reduce his salary in order to don the Benfica jersey once again, the club where he began his football career before rising to stardom in Europe.

Manchester City has been struggling with performance issues this season under the management of Spanish coach Pep Guardiola, raising the possibility of the team exiting the Champions League for the first time in 8 years.

Benfica has expressed optimism about completing the transfer, especially since the player prefers returning to his original team over any other destination.
