Thiago Silva Bio

Thiago Silva, the Brazilian center back was born in a small shady part of town in Rio de Janeiro. Drugs, crimes and shootings were all common there and had a deep impact in Silva’s life. To make things worse, his parents separated after battling many difficulties like poverty and illness. But instead of taking these hardships negatively he developed immense faith in God and started playing football. He started spending more time training and getting better at a sport which made him happy while going through a tough time. 

After playing for local Brazilian clubs like Juventude and RS Futebole Clube, Silva gained international recognition when he signed for Milan for 10million euros. At Milan he rose to power along with the great Maldini under the management of Ancelotti.

Brazil: On the Brazilian national front as well, Silva has proved to be a vital player with over 100 caps. He made his debut for Brazil at the age of 23 and went on to win a bronze medal in 2008 Olympics and a silver at 2012 Olympics.
