David Silva signs five year contract extension

Midfielder commits future to club until 2019

David Silva has committed his future to City by signing a five year contract extension at the club. The deal will see him remain with at The Etihad until 2019, when he will be 33 years of age.

Silva told the club's official site: “From the moment I joined the club four years ago it has felt like a second home to me.

“On and off the pitch, I feel incredibly content and fulfilled professionally and personally, so why wouldn’t I want to stay and keep winning trophies with this fantastic team?

“Over the last four years, we have achieved so much together, establishing City as a dominating force in England and now, when I look around this dressing room, I can see no reason why we won’t become one of the top teams in the world.

“It was a straightforward decision to extend my stay here and spend my peak years at Manchester City, a club with unbelievable fans who have always supported me.”
