Silva close to United deal?

Manchester United are understood to have made a formal offer for highly-rated Braga midfielder Rafa Silva.



The 22-year-old has been one of the bright spots for the Primeira Liga who are meandering in the Europa League places this term.

Recent speculation had suggested that the Red Devils were keeping a keen eye on Silva, and according to ItaSportPress, the club have offered a fee of around £15.5m to land the player's services.

The report adds that the move is expected to be approved by incoming Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho.

Jose Mourinho is currently finalizing the purchase of a residential house in Manchester ahead of his summer takeover from Louis van Gaal.
