António Silva

Recent reports from July 2026 indicate an imminent transfer to Bournemouth is being negotiated for a fee of approximately €20 million, with some suggestions it could reach €30 million. In the same period, an offer of around €20 million from AC Milan was reportedly rejected. In June 2026, Benfica's asking price was reported to be between €25-30 million. Earlier, in March 2026, his value was estimated at €15-25 million amid German interest. This contrasts sharply with older valuations; in early 2025, Benfica was reportedly demanding €40-50 million, and in July 2024, a bid from Newcastle of €35 million plus €15 million in bonuses was reportedly rejected. A €100 million release clause has been consistently mentioned but is not considered a realistic fee given the current circumstances.

Our valuation for António Silva is driven by consistent, recent reports of an imminent transfer dictated by his expiring contract. The available data points to a move to Bournemouth, with multiple sources placing the fee in the €20-30 million range. This represents a significant discount from valuations and rejected bids exceeding €50 million from previous years, a change directly attributable to his contract situation weakening Benfica's negotiating position.
