ISTANBUL, TURKEY – JUNE 10: Federico Dimarco of FC Internazionale battles for possession with Bernardo Silva and Ilkay GuєɴԀogan ofManchester Cityduring the UEFA Champions League 2022/23 final match between FC Internazionale andManchester CityFC at Ataturk Olympic Stadium on June 10, 2023, in Istanbul, Turkey.
Bernardo, like Gundogan, faces an uncertain future. Although he is currently under contract, he has previously expressed a desire to leaveCityin order to be closer to his home. This has led to speculation linking him with a potential summer departure to clubs such asPSGand Barcelona for the upcoming season.
In an interview with Telefoot, Bernardo expressed his uncertainty, stating,”Һօɴєȿτly, I don’t know. We’ll have to wait and see what happens in the upcoming weeks and months. For now, we should just celebrate this victory.”
Is An Exit Imminent For Either Of Them?
The uncertain futures of Ilkay Gundogan and Bernardo Silva have raised questions about whether an imminent exit is on the cards for either player. Should either depart fromMan City, it could potentially be a significant blow to the club.
Losing either Gundogan or Silva would undoubtedly be a significant blow toManchester City. Both players have played crucial roles in the team’s recent successes, especially after a treble-winning season. Their contributions on the pitch and their experience and quality make them valuable assets to the squad.
However, it is important to note that the Sky Blues possesses a strong squad with depth in various positions. While the departure of either player would be felt, the club has shown the ability to adapt and find suitable replacements in the past, so they could do the same in this summer transfer window.
