Silas, as he is more commonly known, is a pacey winger who plays in the German Bundesliga for VfB Stuttgart. Another player who is probably unknown to many people but I strongly believe he will be a sensational talent in a few years time. His record already speaks for itself! In 58 appearances for his club, he has already racked up 21 goals. Many of these games he was playing as a winger or a wide midfielder as well! These statistics might not seem overwhelming or that impressive but we have to remember he is playing for a club who have just been promoted to the Bundesliga and have a low budget.
After watching him play in the Bundesliga last season it is very hard not to get excited about the future for this young Congolese man. He is one of the fastest and most direct players in the Bundesliga already, and we can see he has an eye for goal too. He has already gained achievements in the Bundesliga, being awarded the Rookie of the Month award three times already in his first full season in the league.
The first time that I genuinely thought this player was destined to be a star was in a 2-0 win over Mainz in January 2021. Silas’ overall performance was already great but the best was yet to come. He scored a 83m solo goal in 11.5 seconds. At this moment, I knew I was witnessing a star for the future. Sadly Silas was injured during the last campaign but I can guarantee when he returns, he will be a force to be reckoned with!
