Hart looking forward to taking on Man City teammate Silva

Manchester City goalkeeper Joe Hart is excited about playing against teammate David Silva this weekend.

The England national team host World Champions Spain at Wembley Stadium on Saturday and Silva has been included in Vicente del Bosque's squad.

The in-form midfielder is usually left out when it comes to national team selection which Hart admits is a shame but says he is looking forward to their meeting in London.

"David's a big part of our team, on the field and off. We get on really well with him. He's a fantastic player," he said.

"It hurts me sometimes to see the Spain team with him not in it. I know he's by far good enough but they've got a lot of quality.

"He's excited to come and play England at Wembley and we're just as excited."
