Silva open to new Man City contract as he shrugs off Real Madrid speculation

The Portugal international was snapped up by the Blues in the summer of 2017 after helping Monaco to Ligue 1 title glory in the previous season.

He repeated that trick during his debut season in the Premier League, but was restricted to just 15 starts within a star-studded and record-breaking squad.

Pep Guardiola has already used him from the off on 20 occasions this term, with Silva’s creative qualities helping to counter the injury-enforced absence of Kevin De Bruyne.
