A disappointing debut campaign with AC Milan in the Seria A last season forced Portuguese youngster Andre Silva to complete a loan deal to join La Liga leaders, Sevilla, during the summer transfer window and that move has acted like a big game changer in his career, with the 22-year-old emerging as one of the most frightening attacking talents in Europe at the moment.

Silva has been in an unbelievable form ever since he switched to the Spanish top flight this summer, putting up a couple of extraordinary performances that earned a lot of comparisons with his idol and International teammate, Cristiano Ronaldo.

The attacker is currently sitting on top of the La Liga top scorers' chart, edging out the likes of Lionel Messi, Antoine Griezmann, Luis Suarez, Diego Costa, Iago Aspas and Gareth Bale with his impressive 7 goals for the Andalusians in 8 La Liga appearances so far this season.
