Fabio Silva: FM20 Wonderkid Review
Fabio Silva is one of the best Portuguese wonderkids in FM2020. He is a very well rounded striker who does not have many weaknesses.
In the auto-generated save, he has remained at Porto for a few seasons drifting in and out of the first-team squad before moving to Bournemouth. After a couple of successful seasons there, he has moved to Barcelona and has had a wonderful start to his career at the club. He still has room for growth and is already one of the best strikers in the world. His market value of £66m in 2027 is testament to this fact.
Having excellent average rating and goals over multiple seasons, Silva is a consistent striker who can reach even greater heights under the right management.
