The real possibility of Bernardo Silva joining Inter Miami is getting closer and closer. Reports indicate that the Florida club are aware of what is happening with him in order to put a tempting offer on the table.
According to information published by La Gazzetta dello Sport, the MLS club is added to the list of teams closely following the player’s contractual situation, whose link with the English club ends on June 30 and has not yet been renewed.
There is a lot of talk about Benfica’s intention to repatriate the player after he left the club 12 years ago to become a top player in an elite league such as the Premier League.
In Miami, they are fully aware that they are not the only ones circling Silva’s inner circle. They are competing against European suitors who will try to secure him as a reinforcement before the World Cup.

His representative, the influential Portuguese agent Jorge Mendes, is already exploring options both in Europe and in emerging leagues, including MLS.
