Thiago Silva is delighted with AC Milan’s capture of Robinho.

The Brazilian international has signed a four-year deal with the Rossoneri, after Manchester City took a loss on the £32.5million they paid for him just two years ago.

Robinho’s compatriot at the San Siro, Thiago Silva, has hailed the arrival of the former Real Madrid star, who he feels can help the Rossoneri rediscover their glory days.

"I wish Robinho all the best with us and I am sure he will feel at home. We have an excellent person on and off the pitch,” he told Milannews.it. “I am growing more optimistic with Milan."
