Real Madrid: 5 youngsters who could be the Spanish Champions' next Galactico

3. Andre Silva

The man who looks to be the answer to Portugal’s long-standing prayer for an out-and-out centre forward has been brilliant this season for FC Porto. His goals (16 domestically and 5 on the continent) have brought him to the limelight while he featured in the Champions League breakout XI selected by UEFA. The tall ( 6’1”) striker has already bagged 5 goals for the Portugal senior team (in just 6 appearances) and there is the hint of a burgeoning relationship blossoming between him and his nation’s greatest player of all time – Cristiano Ronaldo.

Ronaldo’s presence in the Real Madrid ranks could also act as a strong pull for the player toward a club that has more often than not been kind to its Portuguese stars. Fast, incisive, possessed of a strong finish of either foot as well as the head and brilliantly cool when one-on-one with the keeper, Silva has all the attributes required to become the next Real Madrid no.9
