António Silva Transfer from Benfica to Milan
Milan was interested in signing Antonio Silva but did not proceed due to Benfica's high financial demands. Benfica's release clause for Silva is 100 million euros, and any offer should be at least 50 million euros. Milan decided against the investment at this time.
Jorge Mendes aims to transfer Antonio Silva to Milan as part of his third mission. Milan's management is highly interested in the young defender, born in 2003. The transfer is planned for the next summer window, and Milan will need to invest 45 million euros. The funds may come from selling Filayo Tomori, who previously declined an offer from Tottenham.
Antonio Silva is a potential target for Milan, especially if Tomori is sold, with Tottenham having offered 30 million euros including bonuses for Tomori. Antonio Silva has a release clause of 100 million euros, and his contract with Benfica runs until 2027. Benfica demands 40 million euros for his transfer. Milan is exploring the possibility of opening negotiations with the help of Jorge Mendes.
Milan has shown interest in Antonio Silva as a potential replacement for Tomori. The club has already made contact for the young defender. Benfica demands no less than 40 million euros for the player, who is contracted until 2027.
Milan is interested in Antonio Silva, and the arrival of Conceicao, whose agent Mendes also represents Silva, strengthens Milan's position. Milan's interest could lead to Fikayo Tomori being pushed to the margins, potentially facilitating Silva's move.
There was a potential scenario where Antonio Silva could move to Milan, managed by Sergio Conceiçao, with Tomori moving to Juventus and Danilo moving to Napoli. However, Milan and Tomori's resistance have currently closed this pathway.
Milan is contemplating acquiring Antonio Silva to strengthen their defense. Despite Jorge Mendes's assurances to Juventus regarding Silva, a substantial offer from Milan could potentially change the situation. With Sergio Conceicao now leading instead of Paolo Fonseca, Milan's market strategies might change, heightening the chances of a clash with Juventus over Silva. The central defender is expected to depart from Benfica, and although Mendes has assured Juventus of Silva's move, a lucrative proposal from Milan could influence the outcome of the deal.
