Career

[edit]

Da Silva began playing football with FC Souvigny and moved to the academy of Moulins at the age of 10,[1] and began his senior career with the club in 2009. He had a stint with Mulhouse for the 2014–15 season, before moving to Rodez for three years.[2] He followed that up with a spell at Fréjus Saint-Raphaël. He spent the 2020–21 season with Bastia, and helped them win the 2020–21 Championnat National and achieve promotion. He was controversially left out of the Bastia side after their promotion, and he transferred to Laval on in the summer of 2021.[3] He then helped Laval win the 2021–22 Championnat National, and again achieved promotion to the Ligue 2. He made his professional debut against his old club Bastia in a 2–0 Ligue 2 win on 30 July 2022, coming on as a substitute in extra time.[4]
