Fábio Daniel Soares Silva

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

Fábio Daniel Soares Silva is a Portuguese striker, born on 19 July 2002 (age 24), now with Borussia Dortmund. His career has already had a few turns, but the clearest evidence of end product came in Spain with Las Palmas.

His 2024–25 league season at Las Palmas remains his most productive spell so far, with 10 goals in 24 appearances. That is a solid return for a striker still working through the awkward stage between prospect and established senior forward.

At Borussia Dortmund in 2026–27, Silva has started sharply enough: one Bundesliga appearance and one goal, plus one goal in the DFL-Supercup. Across all competitions for Dortmund, he has two goals in two appearances.

Silva’s profile is still developing, but the outline is straightforward: a Portuguese centre-forward with a proven scoring spell at Las Palmas and an early impact at Dortmund.
