Veteran Brazilian defender Thiago Silva has joined Portuguese league leaders FC Porto until the end of the season.
www.espn.comHere’s the latest I can provide based on recent reports:
- Thiago Silva joined FC Porto on a short-term deal through the end of the 2025-26 season, with an option to extend, in December 2025. The move was framed as Porto adding experience ahead of domestic and potential European objectives.[1][3][5][6]
- The transfer generated notable attention because Silva had been with Fluminense, and the arrangement allowed him to pursue club and World Cup ambitions while returning to Europe, with Porto confirming the signing and Silva expressing motivation to contribute.[3][5][1]
- There were later developments in early 2026 noting his ongoing presence with Porto, including match events such as a notable own goal in February 2026 and continued squad involvement as Porto navigated the season.[4]
