In tribute to his pre-mature born son Mateo, Manchester City's midfielder David Silva has inked a tattoo of him on his arm. With the artwork on the left, he also has a message: "never surrender".
His wife Yessica Suarez Gonzalez gave birth to Mateo in December who was born prematurely and was kept in the hospital for about 5 months. He also thanked the Hospital Casa de Salud for saving the life of his son through a post.
Silva often visited Valencia last season to look after his son and missed several matches including title decider against Tottenham.
Recently it was revealed that the manager Pep Guardiola asked the team to win the match against Tottenham for David Silva's son Mateo.

"Today you have to win for one reason. You have to win for David Silva and his girlfriend. He's f***ing suffering tonight. When you go out there, you enjoy. Enjoy for him. If you go out there and we suffer, then suffer for him. Is that clear?"
Silva's son was born 25 weeks prematurely.
"I was very worried all the time because news could come whenever. You look at things a different way, for sure. You learn to prioritize the little things."
He said after the Premier League win.
Silva was not present during the Premier League win celebration. He later shared a video holding his son where he thanked his teammates, staff, club and manager.
