Two clubs from the Premier League have shown interest in the Benfica center-back Antonio Silva, with the Eagles from Lisbon who have a fixed price of £80 million.
This will be one of the longest novels of the next transfer window with the player, who is certainly an objective for at least two clubs in the Premier League.
Chelsea and Manchester United have shown interest in the player with a price that is high, but the clubs want to make a financial sacrifice for the player in their team.
Antonio Silva is ready to play in a top competition like the Premier League and his agent Jorge Mendes is ready to transfer him to a bigger club.
Chelsea needs a replacement for Thiago Silva, who is 39 years old and they want to invest in a player who can guarantee them security and stamina in the center of the defence.
Manchester United will release Harry Maguire to another club and with Lisandro Martinez injured, there exists a big possibility for the player to be transferred to Old Trafford.
This seems impossible in January, but it is quite possible in the summer. Ten Hag has repeatedly said that he needs quality on his side and not only quantity.
This could be the big gift of Sir Jim Ratcliffe for his coming as a shareholder in Old Trafford.
Antonio Silva is one of the best players who plays in Liga Portugal and Benfica hardly negotiates without a good price in the table.
Antonio Silva has played 630 minutes this season in Liga Portugal and has scored one goal.
His flexibility in the center of the defense and the ability to risk in the set pieces make him a complete defender. Antonio Silva led his squad last season in the quarter-finals of the UEFA Champions League.
The Premier League would increase the values of the 19 years old, who is already shinning with Benfica
