Reading's Sone Aluko picks Manchester City star David Silva as toughest opponent

The Nigerian forward had a memorable experience with the 33-year-old when they met four years ago

Reading forward Sone Aluko has described Manchester City playmaker David Silva as the toughest opponent he has ever faced.

Since his arrival at the Etihad Stadium in 2010, Silva has been an integral part of City's squad with his playmaking skills that have helped him pull the strings from the engine room of the team.

After playing against each other at different occasions during his time at Hull City back in 2015, Aluko is full of praise for the 'incredible' 33-year-old who has guided the Citizens to three Premier League titles, one FA Cup and three League Cups.
