Mendes Called Real Madrid before Ending This Star Player's Future: He Could've Come

Real Madrid is always in the spotlight of top players around the world. That's why agents are constantly received at the white facilities to discuss certain top-level transfers. In this case, one of the most well-known, Jorge Mendes, offered Madrid a very good player.

It's about Benfica's central defender, Antonio Silva, who had been on the white radar for some time. However, the club eventually decided against this player as he was extremely expensive for what he offered. Now he has decided his future, and it seems his final destination is Juventus in Turin.

While it's true that this opportunity could have been seized by the white club, the reality is that they didn't offer many facilities. Now that they've decided to take a step forward, the club already has other ideas in mind.

For now, it won't happen

The player had the chance to be part of the white team for this very season, as he was strongly rumored in the summer. However, the lack of flexibility from his club and his own agent ultimately drove him away for good.

Still, in the season, he has a good amount of minutes played with a total of 1084 minutes in 13 matches. Quite significant numbers to consider for being only 21 years old and already so important.

However, it seems that Real Madrid's valuation above 50 million euros, and even reaching 100, ruled him out. Right now, the most important thing for the club is to find the best possible proposal to strengthen this position.

Maybe in the future

If he continues to develop interestingly and is given the facilities, maybe in the future they can reconnect. However, the only thing the club can do now is wish him luck in his next adventure in Italian soccer.
