[4] During the following season, he primarily featured as a substitute, making 11 appearances. [5]

Smitshoek

Ahead of the 2023–24 season, Silva Timas moved to Smitshoek in the Vierde Divisie to gain more experience. [6] He quickly impressed by scoring four goals in his first seven matches and was named Smitshoek Player of the Month for August and September. [7]

On 5 March 2024, he announced his return to Maassluis for the 2024–25 season, signing a one-year contract. [3] In his season at Smitshoek, he played a pivotal role in their promotion to the Derde Divisie, scoring a decisive goal in the promotion play-offs against Achilles Veen. [8]

MVV

During the summer of 2024, Silva Timas underwent a successful pre-season trial with MVV in the Eerste Divisie, scoring eight goals in four friendlies. This earned him a two-year professional contract with the club on 24 July 2024. [9] [10] He made his professional debut on 9 August, replacing Rayan Buifrahi in the 62nd minute of a 1–0 home loss to Cambuur on the opening matchday.
