About Johannes Da Silva

Coming through the youth system, Johannes has steadily built his game step by step. His qualities stand out most clearly at left back, where he combines defensive solidity with the ability to support his team offensively. Strong in one-on-one situations, Johannes is very difficult to beat due to his sharp positioning, quick reactions, and strong tackling ability. His overall defensive awareness allows him to anticipate danger early and to break up attacks before they develop.

What separates Johannes further is his explosiveness and speed. He thrives in transition moments, using his athleticism to push forward on overlapping runs and immediately recover to fulfill his defensive duties. His stamina allows him to cover large distances throughout the game, maintaining high intensity from start to finish. These physical attributes, combined with his determination, make him a constant presence on the left side of the pitch.

Tactically, Johannes reads the game with intelligence. He anticipates opponents’ movements, positions himself effectively to close down space, and recognizes the right moments to join the attack. His mindset plays a major role in his consistency: disciplined, focused, and driven to improve every day. 

By blending defensive sharpness with attacking ambition, Johannes offers balance and versatility to his team. With his growing experience at both U23 and first team level, he is steadily maturing into a complete modern fullback.

He is looking to join a competitive college program in the fall of 2026.
