Kaizer Chiefs striker Flavio Silva has received another international call-up from Guinea-Bissau, with the 30-year-old forward expected to travel to Morocco next week for national team commitments during the upcoming international break.
The development marks another important milestone in Silva's international career as he continues to establish himself at both club and national team level. His selection also provides an opportunity to strengthen his position within Guinea-Bissau's squad after previously missing international assignments because of fitness concerns.
Silva, who was born in Bissau before moving to Portugal during his childhood, represents Guinea-Bissau internationally. He joined Kaizer Chiefs ahead of the 2025/26 campaign and has since attracted attention from his national team's technical team through his involvement in South African football.
The striker made his international debut in March 2026 during a friendly encounter against Burkina Faso, marking a significant achievement in his professional career.
However, his progress with the national team experienced a temporary setback during the previous international window. Despite being included in Guinea-Bissau's plans, Silva missed the September assignments after injury concerns prevented him from travelling.
His latest selection therefore represents an opportunity to return to international action and further demonstrate his attacking qualities.
For Kaizer Chiefs, Silva's involvement with Guinea-Bissau highlights the club's international representation. However, his temporary absence from Naturena will require the technical team to carefully manage its available attacking options during the international break.
Amakhosi supporters will be particularly interested in how the forward performs during his assignment in Morocco. They will also hope he completes his international commitments without injury and returns to South Africa ready to help the club with its domestic campaign.
