"When he is not playing you will see how he is missed and that's one game. But every good story comes to an end, and I hope he enjoys the last months there are only six weeks and has a good farewell. He deserves all that attention as well."
"You never replace a player with the same kind of player because they don't exist. Bernardo Silva is unique. The way he controls games, the way he moves, the way he receives, the way he leads, the way he sees the solutions."
"These are the type of players, when they are not playing, you will feel it. He is so, so good. So you never search for a replacement for one type of player."
Bernardo Silva's departure from Manchester City is confirmed by Pep Lijnders, who hopes for a proper farewell. Silva, 31, has been instrumental since joining in 2017, winning multiple titles. Lijnders praised Silva's unique abilities and leadership, emphasizing his irreplaceability. He noted that while Silva's absence is felt, the team will seek players who can grow and fit into the squad. Silva has expressed a desire to end his career at Benfica and will be a free agent this summer.
