Transfer: Great player – Mourinho admits defeat in pursuit of Silva

Fenerbahce head coach, Jose Mourinho has appeared to have accepted that his club will miss out on signing Rafa Silva, who is likely to join their domestic rivals, Galatasaray.

Silva is coming off an outstanding season with Benfica.

The Portuguese forward netted 22 goals and provided 15 assists across 52 matches in all competitions.

Despite Fenerbahce’s interest, Silva’s contract is set to expire at the end of the season.

According to Mourinho, however, Silva is edging closer to a move to Galatasaray.

Mourinho told RTP Portugal, as reported by transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, “Rafa Silva to Fenerbahçe? He’s a great player, but I heard he’s close to joining Galatasaray.”
