Scout report

Squad depthCentral midfielder

Bruno Silva is a 28-year-old central midfielder at Oliveirense, rated 29.4 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 74th of 109 on scout potential in the Segunda Liga. An experienced operator, he has been a fringe squad member this season (23.4% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 1.26 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Silva.

Judged on this season alone, Silva graded 11 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 11th of 21 of the 21 central midfielders in the Segunda Liga, on 2 goals, 0 assists and 1.259 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 9 → 11). Over the 3 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2023/24.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 29, 15th of 21 of the 21 central midfielders in the Segunda Liga. At 28 Silva is in his prime years, and a market index of 4.3 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

1.26 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 30 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (18th of 18) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 2 goals and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.25 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 23.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 29.4, Silva carries the 15th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Segunda Liga of 21 — though on just 30 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.26 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
