"Kelly Somers: Well, Bernardo, thank you for your time today. Let's start with why football? How did you end up in this sport? Bernardo Silva: It was an easy choice because it was always my passion. Since I remember, I always had the ball with me at home, even when my mum was a bit upset at my dad because I would break a few paintings or jars or whatever. I always had the ball with me and it was always my passion."
