Club career

Palmeiras

Gabriel Silva made his debut for Palmeiras by starting a Campeonato Paulista 2010 match against Monte Azul on 27 January 2010.[2]

Gabriel's first match in the Série A, came in a 0–1 loss to rivals, São Paulo, on 26 May 2010, and his first goal as a professional footballer, was against Avaí, on 18 July 2010. His second professional goal was also scored against Avaí, on 7 October 2010.

Udinese

In a complicated transfer, he was bought by Udinese, however, they were unable to register any more non-EU players according to Serie A rules, and the player was subsequently registered with Udinese's Spanish feeder club Granada. He was then immediately loaned to Novara for the remainder of the 2011–12 season.[3]

After subsequent loans at Carpi and Genoa in the 2015–16 season, Gabriel Silva returned to Granada again in a loan deal.[4]

Saint-Étienne

Gabriel Silva signed for French Ligue 1 side AS Saint-Étienne on 9 August 2017.[5] He made his debut as an 86th minute substitution against Caen. He scored his first goal for the club in 2–2 draw with Stade Rennais before getting sent off late on in the same game.
