Reds monitoring Silva

Published by fiz on December 5, 2007



Adrien Silva could be the latest young talent to come off the Sporting Lisbon production line and join the Premier League.

The talented 19-year-old is beginning to make a name for himself in Portugal, having impressed in the centre of midfield.

Silva, who captains Portugal’s Under-19 side, is thought to be a £3million target for Tottenham boss Juande Ramos.

Nani and in particular Cristiano Ronaldo have shown Portuguese imports can thrive in English football - and Silva admits he would one day like to follow the same path as his compatriots.

Liverpool and Sevilla have also been mooted as possible rivals for his signature, with Silva aware that English clubs have been monitoring his progress.

“I know English scouts have watched me. The Premier League is one of the biggest in the world.”
