|
On 26th July 2018, Stade Rennais welcomed Damien Da Silva to bolster its defence after the departure of Joris Gnagnon, who had recently been sold to Seville. A late starter in Ligue 1 at the age of 26, this centre-back arrived off the back of 4 convincing seasons at Caen, coincidentally scoring his first senior goal against Rennes on 25th January 2015 at Roazhon Park. Out of contract after 131 matches in the top flight, he grasped with both hands the chance to play in the Europa League with Stade Rennais. He capped a brilliant season at Rennes with the Europa League run and victory in the French Cup Final. He extended his contract with the club on 1st July 2019.
