Silva was born in Melres, Gondomar, Porto District. He started his senior career in the third division, with Sousense and Espinho.
On 7 July 2020, Silva signed a three-year contract with LigaPro club Leixões. He made his professional debut on 13 September, starting in a 2–2 home draw against Casa Pia. His first goals came on 16 October, a brace in the 3–1 win over Varzim also at the Estádio do Mar.

Late in the 2021 January transfer window, Silva joined Casa Pia of the same league until June 2023 after severing his ties to Leixões. In the 2021–22 season, he scored 11 times to help his team return to the Primeira Liga after 83 years, being included in the Team of the Year in the process.




= Vitória Guimarães

On 1 June 2022, Silva agreed to a three-year deal with Vitória de Guimarães on a free transfer. The following day, Casa Pia claimed that he was under contract with them until 2023, rejecting its termination and considering legal action against Vitória; a settlement was eventually reached, with the latter paying the former €190,000 for 50% of his economic rights while also reserving another 20% for a fee of €100,000.
Silva's top-flight debut took place on 7 August 2022, in a 1–0 away defeat of Chaves. He scored his first goal 14 days later, in the 2–1 loss at Portimonense. He also found the net in the reverse fixture between the sides, a 1–0 home victory.
On 27 July 2023, Silva scored his first goal in Europe, in a 4–3 victory over Celje in the second qualifying round of the UEFA Conference League. The following March, he netted in five consecutive matches, leading him to be named both the league's Player and Forward of the Month. He scored 15 times in all competitions during the campaign, adding seven assists in a Conference League qualification.




= Nottingham Forest

On 1 August 2024, Silva signed a four-year contract with Nottingham Forest for an undisclosed transfer fee, reported to be €7 million. He made his Premier League debut on 24 August, as an injury-time substitute in the 1–0 win at Southampton. In his first start, four days later, he scored in a 1–1 home draw against Newcastle United in the second round of the EFL Cup, in an eventual penalty shootout loss.




International career


Silva was never capped by Portugal at any youth level. On 15 March 2024, he was called to the senior squad by manager Roberto Martínez for friendlies with Sweden and Slovenia. He made his debut six days later against the former, coming on as a 62nd-minute substitute for Matheus Nunes in a 5–2 win in Guimarães.
