Manchester City playmaker Bernardo Silva has described Phil Foden as an "unbelievable" talent, while expressing his belief that the teenager has the quality to play at Champions League level.
“Phil is unbelievable. Every time he plays he is really good, but sometimes it’s not easy," Silva told Talk Sport.
“Phil has the quality to play in teams that play in the Champions League, but in his position he has David [Silva], Kevin [De Bruyne] or Gundo [Ilkay Gundogan], so sometimes it’s tough.”
When asked to compare City's youth set up with Benfica's, Silva added: "In terms of players coming to the first-team, it’s obviously more difficult to start at Man City than at Benfica, so it’s not fair to compare.
“But as Benfica works a lot with their young players, I think City are trying harder and harder to improve and bring some players to the first-team.
“When you have a squad like ours, it’s not easy for a young kid of 17, 18 or 19 to come and start playing with us.
“But we have good players coming in from the youth, like Phil, and hopefully there’ll be more and more.”
