Official: L. Silva will gain experience at "Marseille" club

The Madrid "Real" club agreed to loan 22-year-old Brazilian Lucas Silva to "Marseille" for the season. The central midfielder arrived in Madrid in January of last year, but in six months he failed to show his worth. In the summer, L. Silva had the opportunity to prove himself, but the young Brazilian's game also did not convince Rafael Benitez. The official "Real" website states: "Madrid Real" and "Marseille" have reached an agreement for the loan of Lucas Silva until June 30, 2016." Last season, former "Cruzeiro" midfielder was supposed to replace the injured Luka Modric in the "white" ranks, but he only managed to step onto the pitch nine times.
