Thiago Silva returns: how did his first spell at FC Porto go?

Thiago Silva returns to Portugal to play for FC Porto. In the summer of 2004, the Brazilian central defender, then 20 years old, arrived in Europe with the Dragons and joined the B team.

During that short stay, he played 14 matches for FC Porto B, recording eight wins, two draws, and four losses. In January 2025, he was loaned to Dynamo Moscow (Russia) and then spent three years at Fluminense.
