6. Impressed Pep Guardiola at the Etihad
Silva stood out as one of Monaco’s star players during their epic 5-3 defeat to Manchester City in the quarter-finals of the Champions League. In one particular passage of play, Silva picked up the ball in his own half, beating David Silva and Leroy Sane with a neat pirouette before nutmegging Yaya Toure and threading a pin-point 30-yard pass through to Kylian Mbappe. Guardiola looks likely to add Silva’s Monaco teammate Benjamin Mendy to his new-look squad for next season.
