Manchester City have handed David Silva a new five-year contract.
The Spanish schemer joined City in the summer of 2010 and has been a major player in their two Premier League triumphs since then.
Last term saw the 28-year-old win both the league and Capital One Cup with the Blues, while he registered nine assists and six goals during the campaign.
Indeed, no player has registered more assists in the Premier League during the last four seasons than City's chief playmaker.
“From the moment I joined the club four years ago it has felt like a second home to me," said Silva, speaking to City's official website.
“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.
He becomes the third player to sign a new long-term deal this summer, following Aleksandar Kolarov and Samir Nasri.
