Manchester United and Liverpool are both said to be interested in the 22-year-old, who can be snapped up for just £15.8million due to a release clause in his contract.
“Our client, Rafa Silva, sees with very good eyes the possibility of playing in the Premier League," Antonio Araujo told Sport Witness. “We are working towards achieving this objective."
The Red Devils legend, currently Van Gaal's assistant manager, is said to be desperate to succeed the Dutchman, but the Sunday People suggest Jose Mourinho has priority over Giggs.
And should Mourinho take charge at Old Trafford, Giggs is likely to quit and look to gain managerial experience elsewhere.

Ryan Giggs could leave Old Trafford if Jose Mourinho takes charge this summer
Express Sport understands the Blues are unwilling to get drawn into a bidding war following four failed attempts to sign the 21-year-old last summer - the highest £37m.
Everton are looking for at least £50m for the sought-after centre-half, with United, Manchester City and Barcelona set to battle for his signature.
