€25m enough for Real target Thiago Silva – agent

(GSM) – The agent of Thiago Silva has revealed Real Madrid are pushing to sign the Milan defender.

Milan vice-president Adriano Galliani insisted earlier this week that they won’t allow any of their senior players to leave the club this summer.

But Silva’s agent, Paulo Tonietto, told globoesporte.com: “First of all, Thiago Silva is very happy at Milan.

“Barcelona? Only speculation, but there is interest from Real Madrid, who is dealing directly with Milan. A Madrid manager came to ask about the situation of Thiago, and I told him that apart from being flattered by the interest of a team like Real, he has a contract until 2013 and is at ease in Italy.”

Tonietto says €25 million would be enough for Milan to let go of their defender.

He added, “I do not know if Milan will accept, it does not depend on me or Thiago. It’s a deal that is developing between the two presidents.”
