Club career

Belenenses

Born in Lisbon, Silva joined local C.F. Os Belenenses' youth system at the age of 16, joining from S.L. Benfica. He made his senior debut on 29 July 2012, playing the full 90 minutes in a 1–1 home draw against U.D. Oliveirense for the season's League Cup.[1] His first match in the second division occurred on 11 August, a 3–1 home win over C.D. Feirense where he also started.[2]

Silva ultimately contributed with 37 games and four goals as the Estádio do Restelo club returned to the Primeira Liga after a three-year absence.[3] He made his debut in the top level of Portuguese football on 18 August 2013, being booked in a 0–3 home loss to Rio Ave FC.[4]

Feirense

From 2016 to 2018, Silva played with fellow league team Feirense on loan.[5] He scored six and three goals in each season, respectively, and on 18 February 2018 the move was made permanent as the player signed a three-year contract.[6]

Nottingham Forest

On 5 July 2019, Silva joined English club Nottingham Forest on a two-year deal.[7] His maiden appearance in the EFL Championship took place on 3 August, when he played 62 minutes in the 1–2 home loss against West Bromwich Albion.[8]

International career

Silva won the first of his five caps for Portugal at under-21 level on 14 August 2013, featuring 31 minutes in a 5–2 friendly win over Switzerland.[9] He was also picked by manager Rui Jorge for his squad that appeared at the 2016 Summer Olympics,[10] playing three matches in Rio de Janeiro in an eventual quarter-final exit.[11][12][13]
