Pizarro proud to take Bell No8 at Man City

David Pizarro is proud to have been handed the No8 shirt at Manchester City.

Pizarro was handed the No 8 shirt once wore by Blues legend Colin Bell, and vacated by Shaun Wright-Phillips when he left in August.

“It is a big honour to have that number, and I look back to when I started at Roma and had a similar situation when I wore the No 7 shirt of Bruno Conti – I hope I can have the same success here,” he said.
