Sir Alex Ferguson on Real Madrid hijacking Bernardo Silva: 🗣️ “Real Madrid do this again and again… and people still act surprised. When they decide they want a player, it’s not a negotiation anymore, it’s a takeover. Bernardo Silva is a top player, intelligent, technical, can control games at the highest level. So of course every elite club in Europe would want him. But what Real Madrid do better than anyone is timing. They don’t drag deals for months, they strike fast, they finish it, and they move on. Two-year deal, option included… that’s Real Madrid business. What stands out to me is not just the signing, but how quickly it was done once they moved. That’s experience, that’s power, that’s reputation. Other clubs can plan all summer, but Madrid can change everything in 36 hours. And that’s why they stay at the top. Because when they want your best players, you’re not competing…BREAKING: Real Madrid have reached an agreement to sign Bernardo Silva 🇵🇹 • Barcelona and Atlético Madrid deals have collapsed. • Salary was the main issue in negotiations. • Bernardo Silva is set to earn €19.5 million per season. • Bernardo loves the idea of playing for Real Madrid. • He wants to win the UEFA Champions League with Real Madrid. • José Mourinho believes his presence will increase pressure on opposition def ences. you’re surviving.”
