The Spanish superstar has been staying in the residence, on the island he grew up in, during his down time

Few can aspire to play with the silky skills of David Silva – but if we all chip in we could holiday like him.

Presenting the opulent vacation home of the stylish Manchester City player, listed for £1 million, according to the Manchester Evening News.

When Silva goes back to his childhood island of Gran Canaria, this is where he stays.

Ex-Man City star put his three bedroom detached villa in the mountainous Tauro area of Gran Canaria up for earlier this year for €1.1m, or £970,000.

While it’s a stunning setting, we can’t help but notice its likeness to the famous Love Island villa.

The ITV programme’s setting is in Majorca Sant Llorenc des Cardassar in the east of Majorca , near Cala Millor, and shares a similar elevated vantage point, lap pool and colour palatte.

When Silva is in Manchester, he lives in a city centre apartment – but in the close season he heads back to the Canary Islands to catch up with his family and his beloved gran.

As you would expect, his holiday pad is contemporary, cool and smart – a million miles away from the showy extravagances some of his fellow Premier League counterparts own

The pictures show a smart living area with views of the rocky scenery as well as the Atlantic, and a view of neighbouring properties it overlooks.

Like the rest of the pad, the kitchen is well-appointed but pretty humble by the standards set by the suρer rich – and certainly nothing like the £150,000 kitchen the Rooneys have at their Cheshire mansion.

Silva owns a Spanish house with a pool and an artificial turf garden where he can practice his keepy-uppies.

A picture of his walk-on closet, which has several of his shirts and shorts, is also included in the listing.
