Career

[edit]

Diogo Silva was born in São Paulo, and was a Clube Atlético Diadema [pt] youth graduate. After making his first team debut with the side in the 2013 Campeonato Paulista Segunda Divisão, he returned to the youth setup with Corinthians, but was loaned to affiliate club Flamengo-SP during his entire spell.

In 2016, Diogo Silva returned to Diadema, and again featured regularly. He moved to Maringá ahead of the 2017 season, featuring rarely during the Campeonato Paranaense Série Prata but becoming a first-choice in the Taça FPF.[1]

In November 2018, after spending the entire year without a club, Diogo Silva signed for Velo Clube.[2] A regular starter in the 2019 Campeonato Paulista Série A3, he moved to Série B side Londrina on 7 May 2019.[3]

Diogo Silva made his professional debut with LEC on 31 July 2019, starting in a 3–0 home win over Paraná.[4] On 13 November, after appearing in just three more matches, he signed for Ypiranga-RS for the upcoming season.[5]

On 21 September 2020, Diogo Silva moved abroad for the first time in his career, after agreeing to a three-year contract with Primeira Liga side Gil Vicente.[6] After struggling with injuries in his first months, he made his debut on 20 February 2021, coming on as a late substitute for Claude Gonçalves in a 1–0 home win over Santa Clara.

Mainly a backup option to Lucas Cunha and Rúben Fernandes, Diogo Silva left Gil Vicente in July 2022.[7] On 18 November, he was announced at Botafogo-SP in his home country's second division.[8]

On 26 December 2023, Diogo Silva was announced at Portuguesa.[9]
