Silva signs new five-year deal Football

David Silva has signed a new five-year deal with
Premier League champions Manchester City.
The 28-year-old playmaker joined the club from
Valencia four years ago and will remain at the
Etihad Stadium until 2019.
Since moving to England, the Spaniard has won
two Premier League titles and an FA Cup winners’
medal.
Silva was also a member of the all-conquering
Spain squad which won the European
Championship in 2008 and 2012, and the World
Cup of 2010.
Silva told the club's website: "From the moment I
joined 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.
“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."
