The Portuguese forward is having a strong season at Las Palmas and is attracting interest. Wolverhampton are looking to secure a fee of around 20 million euros.
Fábio Silva is once again a name on the rise in European football. The 22-year-old Portuguese forward, currently on loan at La Liga side Las Palmas from Wolverhampton Wanderers, has been enjoying a breakthrough campaign that is beginning to attract serious attention across the continent.
With ten goals and three assists in just 24 league appearances, Silva is not only proving himself as a consistent attacking threat in one of Europe's toughest leagues but also reminding everyone why he was once considered one of the brightest young talents in Portuguese football.
His performances in Spain have now drawn the eyes of several top-flight Bundesliga clubs. According to recent reports, three German sides Eintracht Frankfurt, VfB Stuttgart, and VfL Wolfsburg are closely monitoring the forward, all of them impressed by his resurgence in form and eager to reinforce their attacking lines ahead of next season. Silva’s combination of technical skill, intelligence in movement, and an increasingly clinical edge in front of goal make him a highly attractive target.
German journalist Florian Plettenberg has reported that Eintracht Frankfurt have already taken initial steps by opening lines of communication to explore the conditions of a potential summer transfer. The club is said to be very serious about their interest and sees Silva as a perfect fit for their attacking system, particularly with the possibility of one or more of their current forwards departing in the next window. Frankfurt’s proactive approach could give them a slight advantage, but sources suggest that both Stuttgart and Wolfsburg remain very much in contention.
What makes Fábio Silva such a compelling prospect for these clubs isn’t just his stats although ten goals and three assists in a mid-table La Liga team is impressive enough. It’s the broader context of his development and the renewed maturity he has shown this season. At Las Palmas, under a stable environment and in a system that plays to his strengths, Silva has rediscovered his confidence. His hold-up play has improved considerably, as has his awareness and ability to combine with midfielders and wingers. He’s no longer the raw teenager that Wolves signed from FC Porto in 2020 for €40 million he’s now a more rounded forward, still young, but with much more experience under his belt.
For Wolverhampton, the situation is fairly clear. They are open to selling Silva, especially if a respectable offer comes in. The club is reportedly looking to recover around €20 million from a potential sale a figure that, while less than what they initially paid, reflects Silva’s current form and market value. According to O JOGO, Wolves are not willing to loan him out again and prefer a permanent deal this summer. With his contract running until June 2026, they remain in a strong negotiating position, which means interested clubs will need to act decisively if they want to secure his services.
Silva's time at Wolves has been a mixture of promise and frustration. He arrived at Molineux with enormous expectations, but as a young player in an unfamiliar league, he struggled to adapt quickly to the physical demands and intensity of the Premier League. Despite some flashes of brilliance, goals were hard to come by, and his confidence suffered. The club chose to send him on loan to Anderlecht and then to PSV, hoping he would gain more experience in less physically demanding leagues. While those spells had mixed success, it wasn’t until his arrival in Spain that things began to click consistently.
Las Palmas offered Silva something he hadn’t had in a while: continuity, trust, and a tactical environment that suited his profile. The team’s possession-based style, emphasis on technical play, and reliance on intelligent movement in the final third gave him the tools to thrive. He’s responded with maturity, focus, and production and that’s exactly what has brought him back into the sights of Europe’s elite.
For the Bundesliga clubs circling him, there are multiple reasons to be interested. The German league has a strong reputation for nurturing and developing young talent, particularly attackers. A move to Germany could offer Silva the perfect balance a competitive league, tactical discipline, and regular playing time all without the immense pressure that accompanied his Premier League arrival. At 22, he still has plenty of time to develop into a top-level striker.
There’s also a commercial dimension. Portuguese players are increasingly popular among Bundesliga teams, not just for their technical quality, but for their marketability. Silva, with his FC Porto pedigree and growing European profile, fits that mold perfectly. For a club like Frankfurt, which has European ambitions and often balances sporting success with smart business, a move for Silva makes sense on every level.
The summer transfer window is still weeks away, but interest is already heating up. Much will depend on how Silva finishes the season in Spain, and whether Las Palmas can maintain their current position in La Liga. Regardless, it seems increasingly likely that Fábio Silva’s next move will be a permanent one and Germany looks like the most probable destination at this point.
For a player who was once viewed as the next great hope of Portuguese football, this season has been about rebuilding confidence, reputation, and momentum. And if the interest from the Bundesliga is any indication, Fábio Silva is well and truly back on the radar and ready for the next big step.
