Bernardo Silva

Cityzens, when I arrived nine years ago, I was following a dream of a little boy, wanting to succeed in life, wanting to achieve great things. This city and this club gave me much more than that, much more than I ever hoped for. What we won and achieved together is a legacy that will forever be cherished in my heart. The Centurions, the Domestic Quadruple, the Treble, the Four in a Row and much more... It wasn't that bad.

In a few months, it's time to say goodbye to the city where not only we won so much as a football club, but also where I started my marriage and my family. From the bottom of my heart, Ines and Carlota, thank you.

To the fans, your unconditional support throughout the years is something I will never forget. My main goal as a player was to always play with passion so you could feel proud and well represented on the pitch.

To the club, Pep, the staff and all my teammates these nine years — thank you for all the memories and for letting me be a part of this journey for so long. The atmosphere we created every day in the training ground made me feel at home and a part of a big family. Let's enjoy together these last weeks and fight for what this season still brings us.

I arrived as a Man City player. I leave as one more of you, a Man City supporter for life.
