In Spain they are sure. According to Spanish paper As, Real Madrid cannot have Maicon, therefore, they'll keep looking for Thiago Silva. Milan said he's not for sale and his agent, Paolo Tonietto, told Calciomercato.com, that he's only thinking of Milan: "It is clear to me that Milan are not interested in selling Thiago Silva and we must respect their decision".

"At the moment there is speculation that Milan need players, but there is nothing more".

"I haven't spoken to Real Madrid. Thiago is very happy at Milan. His present and his future are at Milan".
