Spanish media reported on Saturday that the Thiago Silva wanted to move to Barcelona this summer and is pushing for the transfer slap from Milan.
Milan sports director headed the expedition, which today will moor on the outskirts of Barcelona. Besides him on board 'La Spendida' are coach Massimiliano Allegri, marketing director, Franco Baresi and head of the Foundation, Daniele Massaro and a group of journalists. All the men set sail on a cruise from Genoa, from which flow into the city.
Negotiations may be more difficult, because the 27-year-old defender has a valid contract with Milan until 2016. Moreover, the price for Brazilian output is not less than 40 million euros.
It is possible that Barcelona will try to knock down the price in the transaction, including one of the players from his team. The main candidate would be Malian, Seydou Keita, who is strongly interested in Milan. However according to Spanish media, Galliani would prefer Thiago Alcantara or Afellay. It does not seem possible that one of the two left Catalonia in the near future.
