Bernardo Silva has signed a new one-year contract extension with Manchester City.

City have successfully thwarted attempts from Al-Hilal, PSG and Barcelona this summer to extend Bernardo's deal to 2026.

"I've had six incredible years at Manchester City and I'm delighted to extend my time here," Silva said.

"Winning the Treble last season was extremely special and it's exciting to be part of a squad where there is such a hunger and passion.

"Success makes you want even more, and this club gives me that opportunity to keep on winning. I love the manager, my team-mates and the fans and hope we can share even more great memories in the coming years."

City's director of football Txiki Begiristain added: "Bernardo has been exceptional during his time at the Etihad, so we're delighted that he has signed a contract extension.

"His quality and technical ability is fantastic - and alongside his hard work and professionalism he has become one of the best players in the world.

"Bernardo was so important in our Treble-winning season and we are sure he can help deliver even more trophies in the next few years."
