The “Old Lady” is offering a three-year contract with an option to extend it for another season, with a salary of at least seven to eight million euros per year, although the Portuguese midfielder turns 32 in August.
It is clear that the end of an era at the Etihad is coming, as Silva is leaving the club after nine extremely successful years.
The departure was practically confirmed by assistant coach Pep Lijnders after a convincing victory over Liverpool in the FA Cup.
“Every good story has an end. I hope that Bernardo will enjoy the last six weeks and get the farewell he deserves,” said Lijnders.
Silva arrived at City in 2017 from Monaco and became one of the most reliable players in Pep Guardiola’s system, winning all the biggest trophies and wearing the captain’s armband this season.
