David
Silva will not land blindly in the Real's dressing room. Not only because his experience of one season in Eibar, even 15 years ago, gives him an accurate reference of what awaits him in Gipuzkoa, but also because he has been a companion of several of the members of the txuri urdin stand.
The first signing of Real for the next season played with Michael
Angel
Moya, for example, in Valencia. It was the canary's last campaign at the Mestalla before emigrating to England (09/10) and the first of the now goalkeeper Txuri Urdin at the convulsive club che. Also, Silva has also coincided in the selection with Nacho
Monreal and Asier
Illarramendi.
With the left back he had a closer relationship, since they shared the qualifying phase for the World Cup in Russia in 2018 and the controversial concentration in the World Cup that led to the departure of Lopetegui, the arrival of Hierro and the elimination of Spain at the hands of the host country. TO Illarra he knows him less, after all, the mutrikuarra has barely been international with the absolute three times, at the end of 2017, although in two of those three games he shared a booth with his new teammate at Real.
Together with Oskitz Estefanía
Taking into account the extensive professional trajectory of SilvaThere are hundreds of players with whom he has shared a team, many with a Txuri Urdin pedigree, although they did not reach the elite. It is the case of Oskitz
Stephanie, jewel of the realistic quarry at the beginning of the century but that, although he made his debut in the first team, did not have continuity. Silva and Oskitz They played together at the U-17 World Cup in Finland in 2003 in which, curiously, one of the goalkeepers was Javier
Mandaluniz, which was also in the realistic quarry. Spain lost the final against Brazil.
The current Athletic coach, Gaizka
Garitano, who played for Real between 2005 and 2008, also knows well Silva, not in vain was part of the Eibar squad with the Canarian who almost promoted to First for the first time in 2005. The coach was Joseph
Luis
Mendilibar.
