Silva joined 1º Dezembro at the age of 16 and won the League four times in succession, as well as the Cup. In summer 2011, aged 19, she signed for German club FCR 2001 Duisburg and described the move as a “dream”.[2][3]
In August 2011 Silva was unfortunate to suffer an ACL injury in a friendly match against Paris Saint-Germain.[4]
In 2014, FCR 2001 Duisburg folded and was absorbed by MSV Duisburg; Silva was one of the many players who then moved from FCR to MSV. In 2015, she signed with USV Jena.[5]
In June 2011, when transferring to Duisburg, Silva had collected 19 caps for Portugal. This was in addition to 21 appearances at Under 19 level.[2]
Silva hit two goals in Portugal's August 2010 3–0 World Cup qualifying win in Armenia.[6]
On 30 May 2023, she was included in the 23-player squad for the FIFA Women's World Cup 2023.[7]
