Vitória de Guimarães is interested in the return of Tiago Silva, a 33-year-old Portuguese central midfielder. The board of Vitória de Guimarães considered bringing back Tiago Silva, who left to join Al-Rayyan less than a year ago. This desire is considered impossible to achieve at this time for financial reasons. Tiago Silva signed a two-year contract with Al-Rayyan that is financially much superior to what he was paid at Vitória de Guimarães, where he was one of the highest earners. He has one year left on his contract with Al-Rayyan. Negotiating a contract termination is not an option, and Vitória de Guimarães cannot match his current financial conditions. Therefore, a return this summer is impossible due to the financial loss it would cause to Tiago Silva. A return might be possible next summer after his contract with Al-Rayyan ends, if the opportunity is still available. The player has 5 caps for Portugal's U21 team and a current market value of €2.20m, according to Transfermarkt.
