Palermo release Joao Silva

By Football Italia staff

Palermo have released striker Joao Silva on a free transfer, the club has announced.

The Portuguese forward arrived in Sicily last summer, but made just one Serie A appearance for Beppe Iachini’s team.

“The club announces it has cancelled the player Joao Silva’s contract by mutual consent.” the Rosanero confirmed in a short statement.

Silva has also been on the books at Everton, though he failed to make an appearance for the Toffees, and played for Bari before moving to Palermo.

The 25-year-old is a former Under-21 international, scoring three times in 11 games for Portugal.
