A promising young player, Matheus Silva’s development could prove to pay long-term dividends for the Earthquakes.
Young: Upon his signing with the club in July, Silva, 18, became the youngest player on the Quakes roster.
Pressure’s On: Less than a week after joining the Earthquakes, Silva made his debut as a halftime substitute against Manchester United as part of the International Champions Cup North America on July 21.
Working his Way Up: Although Silva didn’t see action during MLS play, he was selected for the Quakes bench twice – at LA on July 17 and vs. Vancouver on October 3.
Looks the Part: At just 18 years old, Silva stands at 6-2 (t-4th tallest) and 198 pounds (3rd heaviest).
