“Silva and 10 more”. The presence of David Silva, after serving his two game suspension, is the only novelty in Real’s squad for Friday’s match against Levante at the Ciutat de Valencia. And not only that. Imanol confirms the ownership of the grancanario, something almost unusual in his already long career as a realistic coach. Returns Silvatherefore, after two absence games due to suspension in which Real only got one point out of a possible six.
“He is an impressive player” This is how he defines Imanol to the World champion, at the same time that he is very happy for his return: “Let’s see if it gives us the strength to win tomorrow”. Silva He could be the revulsive that Real needs to win again and the first of many important Realists to renew his contract. He extended it for one more season, until 2023: “It is a real luxury that he has decided to be with us for another year, for what he is, has been and gives us, in competition on a day-to-day basis”, he means Imanol. “It has been the best news of the week,” adds the Oriotarra, who defines the veteran midfielder as “a born competitor”, who, of course, did not come to Real to enjoy a golden retirement, despite the fact that he is already 36 years: “Every time he comes out, he gives his all. He is one of the players I would like to have forever”, explains his coach.
All this does not prevent Imanol from giving him a “slap on the wrist” for his expulsion against Betis, for blurting out a: ‘Fuck you’ to the referee: “A player like him cannot afford to be expelled”, says the coach, who regrets that he left them with one less in the discount of a match “as important” as Betis in Anoeta and without his presence in the following matches against Barcelona and Rayo Vallecano: “It is a great player, a great person who helps the reserve team players, hopefully we have many players like him, but he also messes up from time to time, like everyone else”.
