Career

Silva arrived at Benfica in 1943, making his debut at the hands of Janos Biri on 6 February 1944, against Salgueiros.[1] It was his only appearance in 1943–44.[2] After playing only once in 1944–45 for the second time,[3] he finally had his breakthrough season in 1945–46, amassing 25 games alongside Cerqueira, as he gain his place in the starting eleven in exchange for an aged Gaspar Pinto.[4][5]

In 1946–47, Félix and Fernandes displaced him and Cerqueira out of the first team, and Teixeira saw his appearances drop to 18, nine in the league and nine in the Lisbon Championship.[6][7] He left the club in 1947, having played 45 games in four years.[1]
