Club career
Silva was born in Porto. Having emerged from local Boavista FC's youth ranks he was promoted to the first team in 1994, but took time to establish himself in the early years, serving two loans until 1998 (Académica de Coimbra and U.D. Leiria, both in the Segunda Liga).
Silva returned to Boavista subsequently, and went on to be a relatively important part in the club's historical Primeira Liga conquest in 2000–01, assuming defensive duties in midfield with Petit.[1][2] He featured heavily as the Axadrezados progressed to the following season's UEFA Champions League second group stage, adding a semi-final run in the UEFA Cup the next year.
Starting in January 2005, Silva then played two and a half years at S.C. Beira-Mar, being relegated from the top flight in his last, after which he moved to C.D. Feirense also in the second division. In 2008, he returned to Boavista as the last survivor of the league-winning squad,[3] as the club was in a severe financial crisis in division two, ultimately being relegated for the second consecutive time.
In summer 2010, at nearly 35, Silva signed with another northern team, Gondomar S.C. of the third tier. He retired in June of the following year, beginning a coaching career immediately as he was appointed assistant manager at F.C. Paços de Ferreira.[4]
International career
In 2002, the year after Boavista's league conquest, Silva collected two caps for Portugal. He made his debut on 7 September, coming on as a late substitute in a 1–1 friendly draw against England at Villa Park.[5][6]
Personal life
Silva's sons, Fábio and Jorge, are also professional footballers. Both were developed at Porto.[7]
