BERNARDO SILVA had fans in hysterics as he tried to hide from a selfie-hunting supporter.
The Manchester City star, 28, has become instantly recognisable in his five years shining at the Etihad.
So much so that he was even spotted trying to gain access into what appeared to be a block of flats in the pouring Manchester rain.
But one plucky fan recognised the diminutive Portuguese playmaker.
He filmed himself calling out “Bernardo Silva” to get his attention.
But Silva – dressed in a green jacket, City joggers and trainers – covered his head with his arm and places his face right up against the door.

As the supporter got closer, the City ace took a quick glance then seemed to try and keep his cover.
He then looked at the camera and asked: “What are you doing my friend?” before the video ends.
However, despite his initial frosty reception, the four-time Premier League winner did pose for photos with the supporter – although he barely managed a smile.
But fans found the whole exchange utterly hilarious.

One said: “What is he actually doing?”
Another wrote: “He did not want to take that picture lool”
A third added: “Playing hide-and-seek with the lads…”
And a final user commented: “Hahahaha priceless.”
Silva has started the season with two goals and four assists in nine Premier League appearances as Pep Guardiola’s side hunt a hat-trick of titles.
They can take another step towards that feat on Sunday by beating rivals Liverpool.
