David Silva tips Bernardo Silva to be his successor at Manchester City | OneFootball

At 32 years old, David Silva is having one of his best seasons in his Manchester City career. His seven goals in 15 appearances in all competitions this year is tied for second-most on the team.

Unfortunately, father time is still undefeated and the Spaniard knows that his days are numbered and he’ll eventually be replaced.

Luckily, Silva believes that Manchester City already have his replacement in Bernardo Silva.

“Bernardo is a brilliant player with lots of quality and works very hard,” Silva said.

“He’s got a huge amount of quality. Football moves on, players come, and players go.

“But there’s always someone to come in and fill your shoes and we’re lucky that we’ve got lots of players to do that.”

Though David Silva is considered to be one of, if not the best signing in Manchester City history, he has yet to win a Premier League Player of the Year award.

Of course, in typical David Silva fashion, he isn’t bothered by his lack of individual accolades and is proud to be on Manchester City’s record-breaking side.

“It’s not something that I’ve ever worried about and I’m certainly not worried now,” he said.

“What interests me is winning titles with the group. We’ve done that, and I hope to keep winning.”
