Now where do you think Lucas Silva has a better chance of playing, at Madrid where he's competing with Khedira,Kroos,Modric,Illara, and co., or at Milan where he's competing with Muntari & Poli for a spot? Just refer to Casemiro, very similar.
He wouldn't be ready to play in CL anyhow, so it would still be better for him to first get himself grounded and established over a season in Seria A, by the time we make CL he has a lot more time to grow and be ready to actually put out a positive CL debut. Ancelotti and Pep might be great coaches, but Inzaghi was a great player and will probably became a great coach, that's still an opportunity for any young player.
Pep and Carlo were also GREAT players
...I think you're spot on about Lucas Silva as in it would be better to go to Milan now, and move on later to Madrid perhaps.Thing is he'll cost actual money 10/12m and that honestly rules us out straight away.Maybe Real can buy him and loan him to Milan , as thats the only I see him arriving....there was reports today that Chelsea are poised to Sign Lucas Silva and hijack Reals move , the fee Chelsea would pay is £14m which is near or more than 18m euro , I know thats nothing to them.But I just can't see Milan spending 18m on any player or a whole mercato, let alone a prospect albeit a good one.
