Milan have placed Torino and Italy defender Angelo Ogbonna at the top of their wish list to replace Thiago Silva.

Sportmediaset are reporting that Milan defender Thiago Silva has agreed to join French outfit Paris Saint-Germain for €50m.

Reports are gathering pace that Thiago Silva is on his way to Paris Saint-Germain after their interest in the Milan man was confirmed.

Stories in France this morning claimed that the Brazilian could sign for the capital club as soon as this week for over €40m.

Thiago Silva could complete a proposed transfer from Milan to Paris Saint-Germain as soon as this week, reports L’Equipe.

The French giants have been linked with the stopper in recent times despite the fact that the Rossoneri have insisted he is not for sale.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Thiago Silva “are 99.9 per cent sure of staying” at Milan, declared Vice-President Adriano Galliani.

The agent of Thiago Silva has underlined that his client has no intention of quitting Italian giants Milan this summer.

The Brazilian is of transfer interest to Europe’s top clubs – such as Barcelona and Manchester City – but his representative wants the €40m-plus rumours silencing.

PSG director Leonardo “asked for a discount” when bidding for Thiago Silva because he discovered the Milan star, revealed Adriano Galliani.

Arrigo Sacchi reveals Milan “turned down an offer from Real Madrid two years ago” for Thiago Silva and have no intention of parting with him.

The Brazilian defender is hot property on the transfer market and has been heavily linked with Barcelona or PSG.

Adriano Galliani has laughed off reports Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Thiago Silva are heading to PSG. “I promised Zlatan the Number 10 jersey.”

Milan legend Franco Baresi has identified Thiago Silva as his natural successor in the Milan defence.

Baresi, who was voted the Rossoneri’s Player of the Century in 1999, spent his entire 20-year playing career with the San Siro outfit as an influential member of their defence.

With Alessandro Nesta having left Milan this summer, Baresi has talked up Silva’s chances of being the next in line to take a leading role as both he and Nesta once did for the club.
