    Celtic are lining up a deal for highly-rated Benfica youngster Sancidino Silva, Goal understands.

    The 20-year-old has arrived in the United Kingdom and is set to join the Scottish Premiership club on trial with a view to a permanent move.

    The youth product of the Portuguese giants is out of contract at Estadio da Luz and has turned down offers of a new deal to stay with the club.

    A host of clubs have been monitoring the Guinea-Bissau international, with Greek side Olympiakos and Turkish outfit Besiktas both making offers for the forward.

    But a move to the UK is understood to appeal to Silva, who sources close to the player say is excited about the challenge of linking up with Celtic and is confident of completing a move to Parkhead.

    Silva would not require a work permit to play in Scotland, as he has a Portuguese passport.

    Celtic kick off their Champions League qualifying campaign against KR Reykjavik of Iceland at Parkhead on July 15.

    Seems a bit silly going to the United Kingdom for a trial, when the squad is in Austria...

    We were no doubt watching them.


    I remember Peter Houston saying in the paper that he was sent my Park and co to Portugal and Spain on a regular basis to watch U-19 tournaments etc.

    This boy looks decent, same background as Amido Balde. Guinea Bissau born with Portuguese citizenship, made his way through the youth teams of a big side in Portugal.

    Looks decent, sounds like half a steal getting boy like this for free after he's rejected his own club, benfica..

    The reality is, we give trials out for fun but pretty much all go no further than that..

    He looks good.

    A winger is something we could be doing with.

    on wikipedia he has moved to the Ra Sellic
    After a good season with Benfica B rumours started to circulate of a move to Scotland's biggest club, Glasgow Celtic.
    also said that he has a Portuguese citizenship

    If he is so highly rated why would Benfica let him go.

    What's his instagram?
    They didn't let him go, did you read the article?

    Benfica offered him a new contract and he knocked it back.
