He has since established himself as Cristiano Ronaldo’s strike partner for Portugal, netting seven times in just eight caps.

Ronaldo has also described the Diavolo new boy as his heir for the Euro 2016 winners.

Silva becomes Milan’s fourth summer signing after Mateo Musacchio, Franck Kessie and Ricardo Rodriguez.
