Silva shines in Greece

|

Hammer Xande Silva has scored his first goal on loan and what a goal it was!

He joined Greek team Aris Thessaloniki FC on loan until the end of the 2020/21 season.

The former Portugal youth international had featured once for the Under-23s so far this campaign, having returned from a long-term lay-off in February to register three goals and a further assist at the end of last season.

Prior to his injury, the 23-year-old had featured twice for the West Ham United first team during the 2018/19 season, making his Premier League debut away at Burnley in December 2018.

Silva joined the Hammers in 2018 for a transfer fee of around £3m, he underwent emergency surgery last year and had to fight his way back to match fitness after losing many stones in weight.
