Antonio Silva is increasingly closer to Milan, with negotiations intensifying thanks to the intervention of his agent Jorge Mendes.
Antonio Silva is making great strides towards AC Milan. The deal with Benfica will come to life starting today, when Jorge Mendes, the agent who looks after their interests, will speak in Lisbon with the leaders of the Portuguese club and reiterate his client's desire to leave. In the past Juventus had also tried several times, but this seems to be the right time to snatch him from the Portuguese.
The defender born in 2003 has a contract expiring in 2027 and was very disappointed after not being called up for the World Cup. So he decided that to improve and be more in the spotlight the right thing was to go and play in a more competitive league or at least a higher level on paper. Milan, with Ruben Amorim on the bench, attracts him quite a bit.
In his career he boasted 181 appearances and 10 goals with Benfica, 38 appearances and 4 goals with the Under 23s and 4 appearances with Benfica B. He also took the field 20 times with Portugal, once with the Under 21s, 9 with the Under 19s, scoring a goal, 2 with the Under 18s, 8 with the Under 17s, embellishing them with a goal, and 8 with the Under 16s. His palmares includes a Nations League, a Liga Portugal, a Portuguese League Cup, 2 Portuguese Super Cups and a Youth League.
Arsenal are interested in Lille midfielder Ayyoub Bouaddi, who has shown impressive form in Ligue 1. The Gunners will face competition from big clubs such as Manchester City, Manchester United and Bayern Munich to secure the 18-year-old talent.
Leipzig's sporting director confirmed that Diomande will remain at the club for next season.
Didier Deschamps commented on the FIFA ban on black armbands in the Norway-France match, specifying that he had no need for this gesture after the death of his mother.
