FOCUS: Juve eye André Silva

Has Portugal finally found the “new Eusebio”? For many years, the Seleçao das Quinashas been missing a decisive center forward, but now, three months after winning its first tital, things could have changed. With a hat trick against Far Oer, Porto striker Andre Silva could be the right man.

The 21-year-old has joined the Dragoes after playing in the youth teams of their city rivals Boavista; he is a modern center forward, physically strong but also agile and skilled. In the last season he has scored 5 times in 7 games, and last summer he has scored against AS Roma in the Champions League play offs.

Recently, he has started to score even for his national team, attracting the interest of many clubs including Juventus. André Silva has five more years on his contract with Porto, and a €60m release clause.
