On 16 August 2024, NJ/NY Gotham FC announced that they had signed Silva through the 2024 season.[7] She scored her first goal with Gotham on 3 October 2024, in a 13–0 drubbing over Frazsiers Whip FC in the CONCACAF W Champions Cup.[8][9] After her first season at Gotham, Silva was re-signed by the club to a short-term extension.[10]
International career
Silva was born in Portugal to an Angolan father and Portuguese mother, with both of her grandmothers of Angolan descent.[11] In September 2011, she made her senior debut for the Portugal women's national football team, in a 1–0 UEFA Women's Euro 2013 qualifying defeat by Austria in Pombal.
Silva was named by coach Francisco Neto in the final 23-player Portugal squad for UEFA Women's Euro 2017 in the Netherlands.[12] But in the last training session before departing for the tournament, she was injured. Diana Gomes was called up by Neto as her replacement.[13][14]
On 30 May 2023, she was included in the 23-player squad for the FIFA Women's World Cup 2023.[15]
