Manchester City celebrated their historic achievement of winning the Premier League, FA Cup, and Champions League in style as they paraded through the streets of Manchester on open-top buses. Pep Guardiola completed the second treble of his career and the English giants matched Alex Ferguson's feat with Manchester United in 1999.
Jack Grealish, who joined the club from Aston Villa last summer for a British record fee of £100 million, was one of the most enthusiastic players as he danced and sang with his teammates and fans. While celebrating, Grealish was hilariously spotted begging Bernardo Silva to stay at the club.
During the parade, the 27-year-old English international was spotted chanting, "Please don’t go" to Silva as teammates around them chuckled. This wasn’t the only occasion he expressed his admiration for Silva as he encouraged the fans and players to chant Silva’s name.

"There’s one person in this team that I absolutely adore," Grealish announced, "And he looks homeless, his name is Bernardo Silva. So can we just sing one song for him please?" Grealish led the room as everyone chanted Silva’s name and the fans joined the celebrations.

Bernardo Silva has been linked with many clubs in Europe including PSG and Barcelona and his future at Manchester City is in question. Silva has been instrumental for Pep Guardiola in their success this season as the playmaker has scored seven goals and has five assists this season.
Silva commented on the links and he said after the win, he said, "Honestly, I don’t know. We’ll see what’s going to happen in the next week weeks, the next few months. Now we just have to celebrate this victory." Silva’s contract with City is valid till 2025 and a reported offer from PSG consists of Gianluigi Donnarumma and Marco Verratti plus cash for the midfielder.
