Nuno Miguel Costa Silva (born 27 October 1975) is a Portuguese retired footballer who played as a central defender.

Club career

Born in Lisbon, Silva spent the vast majority of his 19-year professional career with Leixões Sport Clube, competing with the club in all three major levels of Portuguese football. He started playing with C.D. Santa Clara in 1995, in the fourth division.

In the 2006–07 season, Silva appeared in 20 games – all starts – as the Matosinhos side returned to the top level after a lengthy absence, as champions. In the 2008–09 campaign he contributed with 22 matches for a sixth position in the league, narrowly missing out on qualification to the UEFA Europa League.

Silva retired at the end of 2013–14, aged 38 and after four consecutive years in division two with his main club.[1] He spent the 2004–05 season on loan to F.C. Penafiel,[2] where he scored his first and only goal in the main category, away against Gil Vicente F.C. for the game's only on 16 January 2005.[3]
