# Manchester City: Fans gutted over possibility of never seeing David Silva play football in England again

**Responding to a post from news account [Man City Xtra](https://twitter.com/ang3859/status/1239262684543148032?s=21), plenty of Sky Blues are gutted over the possibility that they may never witness legend David Silva play football in England again – taking to Twitter and voicing their concerns over the matter.**

Due to the coronavirus outbreak and football’s suspension until [April 3rd](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/51867989) at the earliest, there has been much debate in regards to how this season will be completed or if it even will finish – with the severity of the illness’ contagiousness seemingly throwing the entire footballing calendar into doubt. Responding to the post, which outlined the possibility of never seeing Silva in a blue jersey again, many City fans have been panicking over the notion that their club legend could fail to go out with a bang due to the current pandemic. The Spaniard, who has been part of a successful era at the Etihad, announced he was [leaving](https://www.marca.com/en/football/international-football/2019/06/26/5d133ddeca4741287c8b4606.html) the club at the end of this season.

As a result, many City fans are disappointed, with one fan claiming that the news ‘[makes me very sad](https://twitter.com/ang3859/status/1239262684543148032?s=21)‘ – here’s what they had to say on Twitter.
