Former Rangers striker Fabio Silva believes he had success during a six-month loan in Scotland.
Although there is still uncertainty surrounding the 22-year-old Portuguese striker’s performance in Glasgow, Fabio Silva is beginning to establish himself in Spain.
The Wolves loanee plays for a Las Palmas team that was relegated to the bottom of La Liga before facing Valencia in the Mestalla in a six-point relegation match.
However, former Ibrox striker Silva was instrumental in Las Palmas’ first victory of the season and their recovery from the bottom of the table after the Spanish team changed managers.
For Las Palmas, Fabio Silva scores once more.
This season, Fabio Silva and his Las Palmas colleagues have had several setbacks, but the Portuguese striker is beginning to get back to his best.
The striker was back to his best for Valencia’s crucial match after finally finding his shooting boots in the 3-1 loss to Villarreal one week prior to the international break.
After falling behind 1-0 to a penalty in the first half, Silva scored Las Palmas’ second goal to complete a comeback against Valencia.
Following some fantastic build-up play, Adnan Januzaj found Jose Campaña, who rolled it to Fabio Silva for a clean finish.
After scoring twice for the Portugal U21s while playing for Wolves on international duty, Fabio Silva now has four goals in five games.
A spectacular outside-of-the-boot cross by the Scotland international, who joined the Spaniards in the summer, set up Alberto Moleiro for the team’s third goal in a 3-2 triumph.
