Description

Fábio Pereira da Silva (Brazilian Portuguese: ; born 9 July 1990), commonly known as Fábio or Fábio da Silva, is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays as a full-back for French club Nantes.

Fábio and his twin brother Rafael began their careers with Fluminense in their native Brazil before being signed by English club Manchester United in February 2007. Unlike his brother, Fábio struggled to hold down a place in the Manchester United first team, and after a loan spell with Queens Park Rangers in 2012–13, he made a permanent move to Cardiff City in January 2014.

Fábio has played for Brazil twice at senior international level, both appearances coming in 2011, the same year he played for Manchester United in the UEFA Champions League Final against Barcelona.
