Jorge Mendes says it’s still too early for Bernardo Silva to return ..

Bernardo Silva’s contract with Manchester City ends at the end of the current season, but Jorge Mendes, the Portuguese international’s representative, believes it’s “still too early” for a possible return to Benfica.

The businessman was questioned by Channel 11 about this possibility at the end of the Globe Soccer Awards gala, which took place in Dubai, and replied that the final decision will be up to the player himself, but implied that it will not be next summer.

You have to ask him that, but I think it’s still too early, it’s still too early,” highlighted the businessman who was once again awarded the prize for best agent of the year 2025.

Jorge Mendes also spoke about João Félix’s career path and revealed that the current Al Nassr player had an offer from Manchester City when he left Benfica to sign for Atlético Madrid in the 2019/20 season.

“When João Félix went to Atlético, he decided to go there because he could also have gone to Manchester City; he had an offer, but he would have had to stay another year at Benfica. He made that decision because at the time he was speaking directly with people from Atlético and decided to go there,” the Portuguese agent further emphasized.
