As per European soccer pundit Andy Brassell, Bernardo Silva has been declared Portugal’s top player, leaving Cristiano Ronaldo in the shadow.
The current club of Silva is Manchester City, while Ronaldo plays for Al-Nassr.
During an interview with talkSPORT, Brassell remarked: “Roberto Martinez has a variety of choices available. The Portuguese squad boasts immense talent, and I believe individuals comprehend if he opts for those choices.
“I believe Cristiano Ronaldo now comprehends that there will be occasions when he starts, while at times he will be among the squad players, and he must come to terms with this reality.
“The fascinating aspect is that, in the past, criticizing Ronaldo in Portugal would have been deemed unacceptable two or three years ago. However, currently, I feel the acknowledgment is that Bernardo Silva stands out as their premier player.”
