There have been recent connections linking Benfica defender Antonio Silva with a potential departure from the Portuguese club.

Journalist Rudy Galetti has disclosed that the 20-year-old central defender is attracting interest from various European clubs, particularly Manchester United and Paris Saint-Germain. Silva is held in high regard by these clubs.

Currently under contract with Benfica until the summer of 2027, Silva has a release clause of €100 million (£86.7 million). It remains to be seen whether Manchester United will translate their interest into a concrete proposal for his signature in the upcoming months. Given his potential, it is likely that his release clause would need to be met, as Benfica is unlikely to part with such a promising young talent at a discounted price.

Silva has become a crucial player for the Portuguese club and aims to solidify his spot in the national team’s starting lineup. Undoubtedly a world-class talent, the Portuguese international could play a pivotal role for Manchester United in the forthcoming seasons if they successfully secure his signing.

Manchester United must secure high-quality, long-term successors for figures like Harry Maguire and Raphael Varane. Silva presents a promising investment for the future, and it remains uncertain if Manchester United can outbid competitors such as PSG for his acquisition. The allure of competing in the Premier League may also be an enticing prospect for the young defender.
