Squad difficulties mark the start of SC Silvalde's season

SC Silvalde prepares for the 2026/2027 season under the command of José Resende, but faces serious difficulties completing the squad, needing five to six signings after four players quit. President José Saxe criticizes the lack of commitment from younger athletes, while the club also faces problems in the youth divisions. Despite a turbulent past season — marked by the death of a player, coaching changes, and facility problems — Silvalde reached the final of the Complementary Cup. The lack of own facilities continues to be an obstacle, forcing even the presentation match to take place in Maceda. The objective for the new season is to form a competitive group and, if possible, discuss promotion.
