Bournemouth have completed the signing of Portugal international defender Antonio Silva from Benfica. The transfer is worth £21.4m plus a potential £4.3m in add-ons. Bournemouth were in the market for a centre-back following the summer departure of Marcos Senesi, with Silva fitting the profile of the kind of player the club were targeting. Silva has played 237 games for Benfica, despite being only 22-years-old.
