Marc Guehi ranks ‘incredible’ Manchester City veteran among top three career teammates Guehi has named Man City captain Bernardo Silva as one of the best players he has played with The centre-back described the Portuguese icon as an “incredible leader” Silva will part ways with Man City this summer after nine years at the Etihad Stadium. Manchester City defender Marc Guehi has named captain Bernardo Silva among the top three players he has played with during his career. Silva has confirmed he will be leaving Manchester City when his contract expires at the end of June, concluding a glorious nine-year journey at the club.

While there remains a big gap to fill in City’s midfield next season, the 31-year-old’s upcoming departure is also an emotional affair for manager Pep Guardiola , who has said that part of him is leaving alongside Silva . Marc Guehi issues statement after Manchester City error in 3-3 Everton draw Guehi, who joined Manchester City from Crystal Palace in January, has revealed he has been wowed by Silva in his first few months in the north-west, praising the Portugal international to be “really supportive to every single person in the squad”. Bernardo Silva is an ‘incredible leader’, says Guehi Despite having spent less than four months at Manchester City, Guehi has already named Silva among the best three players he has played alongside during his career.

The 25-year-old has shared the pitch with Silva in 15 out of the 17 appearances he has made for the Premier League giants. Silva was awarded the Manchester City armband by Guardiola last summer following the departures of Kyle Walker and Kevin De Bruyne . Guehi admitted to being ‘actually surprised’ by how ‘vocal’ Silva is in and around the dressing room.

“He’s probably one of the best players I’ve played with, top three for sure,” the England international said of Silva in conversation with the Manchester Evening News . “He (Silva) is an incredible leader. How vocal he is actually surprised me because, with someone with his quality, you just feel like he just performs on the pitch and leads on the pitch with his performances – but he’s very vocal.
