Tuesday, 18 August 2020, 08:44A big surprise came last night (Monday) from Spain, when Real Sociedad announced that they had signed David Silva. The 34-year-old Spanish midfielder, who left Manchester City after a decade, was due to move to Italian side Lazio, and in fact even summed up his terms at the club, but eventually preferred to return to the Spanish league, signing a two-year contract with the Basques.
Italian media reported today that "Lazio is outraged at Silva's behavior," claiming he did not even inform them he was signing for Sociedad. Lazio were confident the deal was closed after agreeing with him all the details last week, including a three-year contract with an annual salary of 4 million euros per season as a bonus, with the team even pampering him with special conditions like a private driver and the option to fly a private jet for holidays.

Instead, not only did he not bother to call - Lazio surprisingly revealed in the media that Silva had signed with another team, after Sociedad had secretly approached him. "It's disrespectful to Lazio," the team said of the player, who preferred to play for less money in Spain than the team that will play in the Champions League next season.
Real Sociedad finished last season in sixth place in Spain and will play in the Europa League. She reportedly offered Silva a lower contract, and for only two years, but his family preferred him to return to Spain.
