  According to reports coming out of Spain, Real Madrid have proposed an offer for Milan defender Thiago Silva.
  
  Marca are reporting that the Spanish giants are willing to offer €20 million plus attacking midfielder Rafael Van der Vaart for the Brazilian stopper.
  
  The Rossoneri management have put on a €30m price tag on their star defender, and are reluctant to sell him.
  
  New Blancos coach Jose Mourinho is fond of the centre-back, and has recently stated that he wishes to bring another world-class defender to Madrid.
  
  The former Ajax and Hamburg player has failed to find continuity since his transfer to the side in 2008.
