The beginning to Silva’s career was very humble indeed. He started out with Salgueiros and caught the eye when he led his side to a shock 3-2 success over Porto’s youth team in 2010.
“Porto had won all their games to that point and we surprised them,” coach Alexandre Silva told Maisfutebol. “The whole team was great by Andre was the standout. He scored and was man of the match.”
Porto had seen enough of the youngster to make their move, but they could not agree upon a transfer fee and so the deal went to court. Compensation was ruled at a mere €1000 – seven years later he has been sold for many times that amount.
