Silva revealed that he felt pressured into joining Wolves from Porto four years ago and that he lacked a say in the matter.

Fabio Silva has expressed his desire to leave Wolves and seek a new challenge.
Silva managed just three Premier League starts for Wolves last season before his loan move to Rangers.
Silva is now seeking a fresh start, believing that both he and O’Neil are in agreement about his future. “I’m trying to relax with my family and friends right now, but eventually, I want to try and move to another club,” he told SPORTbible. “I don’t know if it’ll be a transfer or another loan, but everyone at Wolves knows my thoughts. And the coach [Gary O’Neil] has the same opinion. We’re going to try and do everything to make a move happen.”
Silva’s career began with promise at Porto, where he became the youngest player to make a league appearance for the club. His talent drew comparisons to Cristiano Ronaldo, and he was highly sought-after by clubs across Europe. However, his move to Wolves for a £35 million fee did not go as planned, and Silva revealed that he felt pressured into the transfer without having a say in the matter.

Silva believes he would have benefited from joining a club that offered more time and patience for his development.
Despite his initial reluctance, Silva acknowledged that his time in the Premier League has been beneficial for his growth as a player. “I had to learn quickly,” he said. “Playing against some of the best center-backs in the world was a great experience. The Premier League is so competitive, and you can’t take any team lightly.”
