The Rossoneri defender has stated that he wants to make history at San Siro, and has revealed that http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Robinho-c31382 and Pato also advised him against a switch to the French outfit.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Thiago-Silva-c34903 has revealed that he never seriously thought of making a move away from AC Milan, despite the fact that he has received a lot of interest combined with some hefty offers from Paris Saint-Germain.
The Qatari-owned outfit is bursting with money from their new owners, and were prepared to offer the Rossoneri a deal worth €46 million for the Brazilian defender.
Silvio Berlusconi first admitted that the Milan outfit could not afford to say no to an offer like that, given the financial pressure that the club is going through.
However, the President decided to turn down the lucrative offer from PSG, following negative reactions from manager, players and fans of the Italian giants.
The Brazilian international has now been offered an improved contract by the Rossoneri, and the defender is happy that he did not move to Ligue 1.
Thiago Silva was adamant that he never took the idea of moving to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/France-c2899 seriously, and hailed the Diavolo President’s decision to retain him at the Milan outfit.
The former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Fluminense-c39366 pointed out that he has always maintained in every interview that AC Milan is his only love in football, and stressed that the offers from other clubs are only acknowledgements that he has played his part well for the Rossoneri.
The Brazilian went on to reveal that he idolizes Paolo Maldini and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Franco-c14050 Baresi, and stressed that he aspires to become a legend like them at the club.
While talking to the press, the 27-year-old said:
"To be honest, I never thought about leaving Milan. In all the interviews I gave I said I wanted to stay and continue my career at Milan. But because I had done well, other clubs opened their eyes and it was only normal that an offer arrived. But I'm glad
I stayed. I said that my thinking was to make history just as Maldini and Baresi did. And to be compared with them is an honour."
Thiago Silva went on to reveal that Zlatan Ibrahimovic, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Mario-Yepes-c24052 were also among the people that advised him against a move to the Paris outfit.
