David Silva has announced his retirement from international football.

32-year old Silva had 125 caps for the country and won the 2010 World Cup and 2008 and 2012 European Championship titles.

Silva who plays for Manchester City and made his Spanish debut in 2006, said he was “very proud” and the decision to retire was “one the most difficult of my career”.

“I lived and dreamed with a team that will forever be remembered. It has not been easy, after all I’ve experienced, to write these lines. I’ve spent days and weeks considering this. The national team gave me everything and helped me grow as a player and a person.

“I leave proud and happy, bringing an end to a time full of emotions and memories, like of the figure of Luis Aragones, a maestro who will never be forgotten,” he said in a post on Twitter.

Ighal0, mikel please foll0w suit

Waiting for Fernando Torres to retire

leave this youths when are they paying N-power volunteers

Poor man's Modric, you've done well.


Respect!

He was a good player

Luis Aragones. The guy who started it all. Spain under him was great in that 2008 championship. Football will continue to miss him.


And Silva's set of midfielders are majorly in their 30's now. With so much emphasis on pace and physicality in the modern game, they might be the last. Then the Pogba's of this world will reign supreme

Wow..Ramos shud join pique

Magical left foot..a legend

Shed more light about ur comment pls

Their midfield set is the best we can see in a team... Busquets,Xavi,Iniesta,Alonso,David Silva,Fabregas,Mata,Martinez... Those were midfielders Not all this yeye Pogba and bakayoko..

That's good at least he won everything a footballer can hope to win playing for his country.

All the best David Silva,u are a good midfielder,especially as an attacking or central midfielder

Good luck, legend. Barca's golden generation really helped Spain's national team.
