Silva, who has made 93 appearances for City, said on the club’s official website: “It’s an honour to extend my deal with Manchester City.
This club offers everything a player needs to fulfil their ambitions and there’s nowhere else I want to be. “As soon as I heard City wanted me to stay longer, my mind was made up.
I love the club, the manager (Pep Guardiola), the players and the fans. “The style of football we play here excites me, and I am determined to win more trophies.
City gives me the best chance of doing that.” City’s director of football Txiki Begiristain said: “Bernardo is an exceptional talent, so offering him a new deal and ensuring he spends the best years of his career with us was a very easy decision.
“Under the guidance of Pep and the backroom staff we have here, we expect to see him develop into one of the world’s best players over the coming years.”
