Milan deny Thiago Silva link

Serie A giants AC Milan have categorically denied they are interested in signing Fluminense defender Thiago Silva.




The
23-year-old has been linked with a possible move to Serie A in January
but the Rossoneri have quashed Italian media reports which suggest they
are battling with city rivals Inter to sign the Brazil international. "Regarding
reports in certain newspapers in which they state Milan's rivalry with
other clubs to acquire the services of Brazilian Thiago Silva, Milan
clarifies that such rivalry will not take place," read a statement on
club website acmilan.com. "Milan has already filled its two
non-European players' spots for this season and we are not among the
clubs which can sign Thiago Silva." Thiago Silva was a member of Brazil's bronze medal-winning side at the Olympic Games in Beijing last month.
