Napoli and Juventus will provide stiff competition to the likes of Liverpool and Tottenham in the race to land Portugal's latest emerging centre-back talent, according to fresh reports.
A Bola claims that Benfica teenager Antonio Silva is subject to interest from the two Serie A clubs, after the 19-year-old established himself in the heart of the unbeaten Eagles' defence this season. But both the Reds and Spurs have already been linked with a move for another success story from the Lisbon club.
Silva's meteoric rise has already seen him become a full international. He started Portugal's final World Cup group stage match against South Korea last week. Former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher has already tipped Silva to become a 'superstar' after his remarkable start to the domestic Portuguese season.
