Former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher has lifted the lid on the bizarre response he received from Manchester City after he enquired about the possibility of interviewing David Siva prior to the Spaniard leaving the Premier League.
Silva spent 10 years at Manchester City after signing from Spanish side Valencia in the summer of 2010 and quickly established himself as one of the Premier League's most talented midfielders. Alongside Sergio Aguero and Yaya Toure, the Spaniard became a stalwart of the club's early Premier League success under Roberto Mancini and Manuel Pellegrini, which led to Carragher becoming a huge fan.
So much so that when Silva announced he would be leaving the Premier League once his contract expired at the end of 2019/20, the former Liverpool defender tried to stage an interview with the midfielder for Sky Sports.
