Borussia Dortmund has reached an agreement with Wolverhampton for the transfer of Fábio Silva, 23 years old, who spent last season on loan at Las Palmas. The player, who has already been suggested to Sporting, is preparing for his first adventure in German football.
According to Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano, Borussia Dortmund is preparing to pay 25 million euros for the Portuguese international striker, who belonged to the English side Wolverhampton, and will sign a contract valid for five seasons.
The striker has already said goodbye to his teammates after the match against West Ham. The terms have also been agreed between the clubs. The player had several suitors, especially in Italy, but Dortmund came out on top.
This will be the athlete’s sixth club since leaving Porto, in a career where he has played for Wolverhampton, Anderlecht, PSV Eindhoven, Rangers, and last season, Las Palmas. Fábio Silva did not make his mark at the English club, scoring only five goals and providing six assists in the 72 games he played.
The successive loans did not halt the footballer’s progress, who made his debut for the national team last season under coach Roberto Martínez. His first international cap came away against Croatia, in a match that ended in a draw (1-1).
