Bernardo Silva is a 31-year-old defensive midfielder at Manchester City, rated 50.8 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 337th of 418 in the Premier League. A seasoned veteran, he has been an ever-present this season (84.5% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.52 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Silva.
Judged on this season alone, Silva graded 44 — a solid campaign that ranks top 33% of the 55 defensive midfielders in the Premier League, on 2 goals, 4 assists and 2.522 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 49 → 44). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2024/25.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 51, 42nd of 55 of the 55 defensive midfielders in the Premier League. At 31 Silva is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 45.7 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2024/25 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
2.52 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 14 clean sheets across 38 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 20) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 2 goals and 4 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 50.8, Silva carries the 42nd-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Premier League of 55. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.52 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~102), then tapers with age. At 31, Silva sits on 45.7, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Silva's projected Rating — 50.8 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
