Shafaqna English– Portugal defender Antonio Silva signed a long-term contract with Bournemouth on Saturday(1 Aug 2026), moving from Benfica to transform the Premier League club’s defensive setup. British media have estimated the transfer fee at around £26 million ($35 million).
Bournemouth have found a suitable replacement for Marcos Senesi, who recently joined Tottenham on a free transfer, by bringing in Silva. At just 22, Silva is considered a young and talented option to fill the void left by the Argentine defender.
