Real Madrid sign Bernardo Silva on two-year deal

Published

on

Portuguese midfielder Bernardo Silva has joined Real Madrid on a two-year contract, the Spanish giants announced on Wednesday.

Silva completed the move after leaving Manchester City at the end of last season when his contract expired, bringing an end to a highly successful nine-year spell at the club.

The 31-year-old has signed a deal that will keep him at Real Madrid until June 30, 2028.

During his time at Manchester City, Silva established himself as one of the club’s key players, making 459 appearances and scoring 76 goals.

He joined the Premier League side from AS Monaco in 2017 and played a major role in the team’s domestic and European successes.

He has won 15 major trophies with the club, including four successive Premier League titles from 2021-2024, the treble featuring the Champions League in 2023 and all four domestic trophies in the 2018/19 season.

After failing to win major trophies for two consecutive seasons, newly re-elected Madrid president Florentino Perez appointed Jose Mourinho as coach earlier in June.

On Monday, Madrid announced the signing of Spanish left-back Marc Cucurella from Chelsea for a reported fee of 55 million euros ($63.8 million).
