The rumors were true! Real Madrid has officially announced the signing of Bernardo Silva on a two-year contract. See how Florentino Perez hijacked Barcelona's top target as the Mourinho rebuild continues.

In the latest discussion of the transfer of Bernardo Silva from Manchester City to another club, we revealed that the player’s switch to the Santiago Bernabeu had been 90% completed, thanks to the legendary transfer expert Fabrizio Romano. However, here is the confirmation for the rest 10%, as Real Madrid made a historic move by confirming their acquisition of Silva.
The Portuguese midfield wizard, who completed an amazing nine-year spell with the English champions, joins the La Liga giants as a free agent, committing himself to a two-year deal (plus an additional year).
Florentino Perez is Building a Monster Squad
But those who believed that Real Madrid would be passive during this transfer window couldn’t have been more wrong. The club President, Florentino Pérez, is masterminding an enormous and vicious rebuilding process.

Bernardo Silva has now become the third acquisition of Florentino Perez in this new era. Following the big news of José Mourinho returning to his old job at the helm of affairs, and then the quick acquisition of Spanish full-back Marc Cucurella from Chelsea FC.
Los Blancos’ work doesn’t end here, as sources reveal that there is overkill going on in the Madrid boardroom and deals for the giant center-back Ibrahima Konate and the talented right-back Denzel Dumfries are soon to be finalized.
The Ultimate Hijack: Stealing Barcelona's Priority Target
Maybe even sweeter than the addition of such high-quality talent in itself is that Madridistas have robbed the enemy of it.
For almost all of last year, Bernardo Silva was linked up with Barça. The Catalans had recognized the 31-year-old multi-championship-winning player as the main target of their transfer policy for this year, one who would solve their lack of creativity in midfield. However, due to indecisiveness from the side of Barca, Real Madrid acted quickly to secure their future star, who got personally picked by Mourinho and snatched by Perez.

It’s a huge declaration of intent. The Los Blancos will leave absolutely nothing to chance in order to improve their team so that they could reclaim La Liga and UEFA Champions League trophies.
Sportscape believes that the age of galacticos starts now, with Mourinho at the helm and the newly acquired Bernardo Silva running the midfield show. Fans should be holding their breath as the summer at the Bernabéu has only just begun!
