St. Louis City SC acquired Portuguese winger Xande Silva from Atlanta United on Wednesday night.
Atlanta United will receive a guaranteed $100,000 in 2025 general allocation money, plus up to $150,000 in 2026 GAM based on incentives.
Silva, 28, has four goals and four assists in 40 MLS matches (27 starts) since making his league debut with Atlanta in 2023. He has one assist in seven matches (two starts) this season.
“Xande is a player who brings versatility and speed to our attack and is very dangerous in 1v1 situations,” St. Louis sporting director Lutz Pfannenstiel said. “He’s competed at a high level in multiple countries, including in France, Portugal, England and in MLS, and we believe his skill set fits with the way we want to play. We’re excited to have him here and look forward to what he’ll bring to the group.”
St. Louis City made another move Thursday, completing the purchase of forward Simon Becher from AC Horsens.
Becher, 25, joined City on loan from the Danish club last summer and scored six goals in 13 matches with St. Louis, including four goals in MLS play. He has one goal in nine games (four starts) so far this season.
