Former Manchester United striker Louis Saha says he wouldn't blame Bernardo Silva if he left Manchester City for Saudi Arabia.
The midfielder has a 75m-a-year offer on the table from Al-Hilal.
Saha told Paddy Power: Bernardo Silva has just won the Champions League. He's not old but he has been around the block in Europe and since winning the Champions League he may feel that it is hard to do any more in Europe.
With the offer from Saudi Arabia, he has the right to consider whether he takes it or not, and whether it is right for his family. The players that are 23 or 24 and still haven't won the Champions League and then turn it (a move to Saudi Arabia) down because money is the attraction, that's where I would say give Europe another chance because you will have a shot for Saudi Arabia another time.
You will have your shot at Saudi Arabia if you keep aiming for the Champions League, your offer will come. It is just about timing and also about how excited your agent is to get the deal done and get their massive commission, which is my problem."
