society
His career began in 1991 at Club Atlético Yerbalense in Treinta y Tres before moving to Defensor Sporting in 1992 .

In addition, he celebrated winning the Uruguayan championship in all three years of his association with the club. Then scouts from Cagliari noticed him and brought him to Italy . After a few failures, he returned to Peñarol before moving to Espanyol Barcelona after just six months and was sold to Málaga FC after one season . After that, however, the reputation of "Sa pibinca" as a lanky, but goal-scoring striker in Spain consolidated . The football legionnaire, who kept changing clubs after many disputes with the managers of various clubs, then played extremely successfully at Sevilla FC in the 2003/2004 season , where he prepared many goals, scored eight himself and, with Júlio Baptista, formed one of the strongest offensive campaigns . After two seasons he moved to Portsmouth to end his football career. There he dissolved his contract after four months due to unsatisfactory performance (15 games / 3 goals).

car accident
On September 24, 2006 Darío Silva, who was accompanied by two other ex-national players, lost control of his car at Montevideo and collided with a lamp. Silva, who was not wearing a seat belt, flew through the window pane against the lantern, which then fell on him. He suffered an open lower leg fracture on his right leg. Silva was seriously injured. Since the wound became infected and no progress was seen after a six-hour operation, the medical team decided to amputate the lower leg to avoid life-threatening complications. Ten days after the accident, he was able to leave the clinic.
