Fábio Silva

Fábio Silva of Borussia Dortmund was born in Porto, Portugal on 19 July 2002 (age 24).

Fábio Silva, born on 19 July 2002 (age 24), is a Portuguese striker with Borussia Dortmund. His most productive league season came at Las Palmas in 2024-25, when he scored 10 goals in 24 appearances – a useful return, and the clearest marker so far of what he can offer when trusted regularly.

At Dortmund in 2026-27, he has started sharply enough. He has scored twice in two Bundesliga appearances, added another goal in the DFL-Supercup, and also appeared in the Champions League. Across all competitions for the club, that makes four appearances and three goals.

Silva’s career is still developing, but the shape is straightforward: a Portuguese centre-forward who found a productive spell in Spain and is now trying to turn an encouraging Dortmund start into something more durable.
