Adrien Silva could be the latest young talent to come off the
Sporting Lisbon production line and join the Premier League.
The talented 19-year-old is beginning to make a name for himself in
Portugal, having impressed in the centre of midfield.
Silva, who captains Portugal's Under-19 side, is thought to be a
£3million target for Tottenham boss Juande Ramos.
Nani and in particular Cristiano Ronaldo have shown Portuguese
imports can thrive in English football - and Silva admits he would
one day like to follow the same path as his compatriots.
Liverpool and Sevilla have also been mooted as possible rivals for
his signature, with Silva aware that English clubs have been
monitoring his progress.
"I know English scouts have watched me," he told The Sun. "The
Premier League is one of the biggest in the world."
