DAVID SILVA has signed a bumper five-year contact at Manchester City.
The Spanish star, 26, was one of the key players in City’s title-winning season.
And after two years at the Etihad Stadium, he has extended his stay until 2017.
He said: “I’m very pleased because I’ve been here for two years now and I feel very happy here.
“So now I’m delighted to be extending my contract and being here really does feel just like home for me.
“We’ve won the Premier League title and two other trophies too and the team is growing.
“We are now aiming at the Champions League and so that also is another reason to want to stay here and try and win it.
“I feel very comfortable here and I want to try and win trophies like those.
“These last two years have gone very well and so let’s hope that the next five go as well or even better.
“The fans have always given me their support since I arrived here.
“Recently they‘ve been wanting me to sign, so hopefully this goes someway to thanking them for the affection they’ve shown towards me.
“That was something which also helped me decide to put pen to paper.”
