"Vincent and David do not need statues to establish their achievements in Manchester City over the past decade.

They are already seen as icons of their generation ", says City President Khaldoon Al Mubarak.

"But what these works of art give us, and future generations, is the opportunity to be reminded, and enjoy, of the magical moments that both have created."

In addition, Sergio Agüero, who left the club for Barcelona after last season, will be immortalized with a statue in 2022.

Midfielder Silva currently plays for Real Sociedad in La Liga.

Kompany is the head coach of the Belgian top team Anderlecht.

Both Silva and Kompany were involved in winning four league titles with Manchester City.

Agüero won five during his time at the club.
