Bernardo Silva says Manchester City are even more hungry for success as Pep Guardiola’s squad gear up for the first game of our pre-season Asia Tour.
City will take on Premier League rivals West Ham United in Nanjing tomorrow in our opening Premier League Asia Trophy fixture. (1.30pm BST).
Bernardo and his colleagues, of course, created history last season with City becoming the first English club to achieve the clean sweep by securing all four English trophies.
But asked about City’s targets for the new season, the Portuguese midfielder said the hunger and desire within the squad to achieve yet more success was greater than ever.
“We want to try to do even better,” said Bernardo.
“Mostly it’s a young team and two years ago 90 per cent of players had never won the Premier League.
“So, we need titles in our career, and we are still hungry. We are not happy yet and we want to go for more.
“The standards of this team are high, but this team wants to go forward in all competitions knowing that it’s difficult season after season, but we’ll try to do it again.”
Following the squad’s arrival in China, City kick-off our Asia Tour with that opening Premier League Asia Trophy clash against Manuel Pellegrini’s West Ham.
