David Silva

Recently David Silva, a legend of Manchester City, talked about how he would have loved to have played in the same team as Erling Haaland. He was forced to retire from the world of professional football at the age of 37 years. It was due to an injury he obtained in the anterior cruciate ligament. It was during the pre-season matches when he was playing for Real Sociedad. However, by then he had already had 400 or more appearances for Manchester City and had won over 13 trophies.

Micah Richards has drawn a parallel between Arsenal skipper Martin Odegaard and former Manchester City maestro David Silva in light of the former's outstanding performance in the Gunners' ascent to the summit of the Premier League.

With 9 wins on the trot, Real Sociedad has achieved an all-time club record for a successful run of form. They are looking across the leading 5 leagues of Europe and can regard themselves not as elite gatecrashers but as worthy members. Just Paris Saint Germain and Arsenal have won more competitive games than la Real’s 21 this season.

Shaun Wright-Philips recently gave an interview where he talked about David Silva and how he had made a fool of him when they were at Manchester City. Shaun admits that he was unsure when David Silva joined Manchester City in the year 2010. However, the midfielder’s camaraderie proved wrong.

Silva had arrived at Etihad, having transferred from Valencia in 2010, during the summer transfer window. He then went on to become one of the most decorated players in the history of the club. He helped the club win five titles in the League Cup, two FA Cup titles, and four titles in the Premier League.

 

If we look at the squad that represented Spain in the World Cup 2022 which was held in Doha, Qatar, many veterans of the country were missing from the young squad. David Silva was one of them besides Gerard Pique, Sergio Ramos, and Andres Iniesta. Spain's coach was betting on younger players such as Pedri, 19 years of age, Nico Williams and Ansu Fati who were 20 years of age, and Gavi who was the youngest goalkeeper from Spain, 18 years of age.

According to Calciomercatoweb, Manchester City could make a €100 million move to sign Portuguese forward Rafael Leao from AC Milan. The 23-year-old has been a key player for Milan since joining the club and helped them win the Scudetto last season. Leao has started this season in impressive form as well, and he will be crucial to their ambitions. The winger has four goals and eight assists to his name in 13 appearances across all competitions. Leao has been linked with a move to Premier League rivals Chelsea as well. The Blues have been long-term admirers of the player, and they tried to sign him in the summer.

Real Sociedad playmaker David Silva has been fined by a Spanish court for hurting a woman. The ex-Manchester City and Spanish senior national team midfielder was found guilty and then slammed with a fine of €1,080.

Real Sociedad playmaker David Silva was featured as his team could only play out a 1-1 draw with Atletico Madrid at home in the Spanish La Liga. David Silva and his Real Sociedad teammates had to come from behind to win a point from the game.

Veteran Real Sociedad midfielder David Silva was in the starting lineup for his team in their La Liga opener last weekend. David Silva was featured from the start as Real Sociedad began the new season on a winning note. Japan international Tafekusa Kubo scored the only goal of the game to give Real Sociedad a 1-0 victory at Cadiz.

Leeds are reportedly in talks to sign Juan Mata on a free transfer this summer – a player that Frank Lampard once likened to David Silva having played alongside the Spanish veteran at Chelsea. Mata, 34, is without a club after his £160,000-a-week (Spotrac) deal ended at Manchester United earlier this summer. It saw him leave Old Trafford after eight years, after joining the club in 2014, clocking up 285 appearances. Now without a club, the Spain international is looking for a new home.
