Antonio Silva, who is currently 20 years old, has demonstrated significant potential and risen to prominence in the Portuguese league, drawing interest from several major teams. It appears that Real Madrid has an advantage in this situation. While his transfer is expected to be costly, the negotiation structure with Benfica reportedly offers more flexibility for Real Madrid than that of Inácio. Silva is regarded as a versatile player with great potential, qualities that Madrid deems essential for constructing a solid, long-term defense.

Real Madrid have been offered the chance to sign Benfica centre-back Antonio Silva by agent Jorge Mendes, but a deal is complicated by Los Blancos' need to pay at least €75m for him.

Real Madrid are ready to rival Liverpool for the signature of €100m-rated Benfica centre-back Antonio Silva.
