Bernardo's Real Dig: Silva appears to throw shade at Rodri after Madrid move
Speaking at his unveiling Bernado Silva claimed that playing for the 15-time European champions " is not for everyone"— a comment widely seen as a direct jab at former City team-mate Rodri.
Bernardo Silva appeared to take a dig at former Manchester City teammate Rodri as he made the move to Real Madrid. The 31-year-old midfielder, who has been honored with a place among the club's 15 Champions League titles, stated that playing for the world's most successful football team is not for everyone. He expressed his pride in joining Madrid, saying it was an imposing sight to see the club's collection of Champions League trophies when he first arrived.
Silva vowed to give his all for the club, hinting at a possible comparison to Rodri's former Manchester City teammate. The Portuguese star joked that Rodri, who had been linked with a move to Madrid, had doubts about joining the Spanish giants, causing some confusion for him as well. One of Madrid's biggest signings this summer, Rodri is set to join Barcelona alongside Anthony Gordon and Karim Adeyemi.
