Manchester City midfielder Bernardo Silva has hailed his side's "amazing" season, adding that his current post is "the perfect job".

The Portuguese international has been a key part of Pep Guardiola's team this term, now sitting 18 points clear at the top of the Premier League table having already won the EFL Cup.

Silva told Sky Sports News that signing for City was a "dream come true", while insisting that the team must push on to wrap up the league title.

"Obviously when you win and keep winning, it's easier to maintain this atmosphere, but the atmosphere in the Man City dressing room is amazing," the midfielder said. "All the staff, all the players. Personally, when I arrived everyone helped me so much in the beginning and still now. It's great to be a part of this club.

"My job is doing what I most like in the world, to play football, so to be able to be a football player, especially playing in an amazing club, probably in the best league in the world, is the perfect job for me.

"When I was five, 10, 15 years old, I always dreamed of being in the best league in the world, playing with some of the best clubs. To be at Man City, to play alongside some of the best players, it is great. It was a dream that became true for me.

"We will try to do our best to finish the Premier League as soon as we can. It's not finished yet, and we have to do a serious job, keep concentrated and focus, and then to try something in the Champions League as well."

City go to Stoke City on Monday evening in their next league outing.
