Bernardo Silva celebrated his 30th birthday on Saturday and marked the occasion by playing a decisive role in Manchester City lifting the Community Shield at Wembley.

Portuguese Fábio Carvalho has long been tipped for a move away from English powerhouses Liverpool, but the form of the midfielder during the club’s impressive pre-season has reportedly raised the possibility of him continuing at Anfield.

Carvalho has started all three matches, with reports indicating his future may be reassessed as a result.
