AC Milan defender Thiago Silva feels Inter Milan are favourites to sign Paulo Henrique Ganso. Thiago Silva believes the influence of Inter coach Leonardo will be key.
"I owe him a great deal, as Leonardo was very important in my career," he told the Gazzetta dello Sport.
"I'll reveal a little secret: before signing for Milan, I was in negotiations with Inter. Well, Leonardo started calling me on the phone. He talked about the team, Milanello and my future.
"After a few weeks of this, I slammed the door on Inter and signed for Milan. I think he'll take the same approach with Ganso.
"Unfortunately, it won't be easy to convince Ganso to turn down Inter with Leonardo there. He always has the right words."
