Wolves striker Fabio Silva has completed a move to Belgian club Anderlecht on a season-long loan.

The 20-year-old signed for Wolves in September 2020 for a club-record fee, with the club paying FC Porto £37 million.

However, Silva only managed 17 Premier League starts, netting 4 goals, and has now departed to resurrect his career.

Wolves will be hoping he can rediscover his best qualities in the Belgian league this term.

"We felt that a season playing regularly would be very good for him at this point in his career," said Wolves technical director Scott Sellars.

"We've had lots of discussions between myself and [manager] Bruno Lage and with Fabio as well, about what we feel is best for his development.

"He's only just turned 20 today, so he's still a very young boy and he needs a season of playing regular senior football in a competitive league so he can come back to Wolves stronger.

"We saw with the performances of Morgan [Gibbs-White] last year how much of a positive impact a loan can have on a young player, so we believe it's the right step in his development to follow the same path."
