Impact Dasilva remains unavailable after suffering a hamstring injury during an U21 match before the international break. Manager Keith Andrews' latest update confirms he is not yet ready to return to competitive action. Given his lengthy injury history, which has limited him to just two appearances since the 2023/24 season, Brentford are likely to remain cautious with his rehabilitation. No revised return date has been established.

Impact Dasilva had gone down without contact before being forced off in that U21 match, a concerning moment given his lengthy injury history, though this timeline of roughly a month before the international break gives a clearer picture of what to expect. His path back to full training will continue to be monitored as he works toward that return.

Forced off with injury Dasilva (undisclosed) was forced off before the half-hour mark during Brentford U21s' 5-1 win over Sunderland U21s after going down without contact, according to Jon Harland.

Impact Dasilva's latest setback is concerning given his lengthy injury history, particularly as he went down without contact before being forced off. There was at least some encouragement in the midfielder being able to walk off the pitch, though he appeared dejected as he left. The nature and severity of the issue remain unclear, with further assessment likely needed to determine whether Dasilva faces another spell on the sidelines.

Extends contract with Brentford Dasilva had his contract option exercised by Brentford, extending his stay at the club through the end of the 2026-27 campaign, the club announced.

Impact Dasilva returned to competitive action in April after 822 days away from first-team football, featuring in a 3-0 win against West Ham before making his 50th Premier League appearance in the final home fixture of the season against Crystal Palace. The Arsenal youth product joined Brentford in August 2018 and has made 157 appearances across all competitions, contributing 22 goals and 12 assists. Coach Keith Andrews expressed his delight at keeping the midfielder, noting the emotional significance of his return and outlining plans for a full pre-season to build him up for a starting role next campaign.

Option from bench Dasilva (knee) is on the bench for Monday's match against Manchester United.

Impact Dasilva is back in the squad for the first time all season, having finally recovered from an ACL injury. The midfielder will likely need some more time to build up minutes and use the final few games of the season to test his legs, as he has not played since February 2024. He was seeing decent time before the injury, although this could be something that alters his career, needing to show he can play the same.

Impact Dasilva looks to be the closest he has been to a return yet, as the midfielder was back in group training this week. This brings more confidence that the midfielder will be an option for the end of the season, a major point for him after over a year out following knee surgery, last playing in February 2024. Once he is fit, they are likely to be cautious after the layoff, not wanting to risk a further setback.

Impact Dasilva is back on the grass in modified team training as he continues to make steady progress in his recovery from a long term ACL injury.

Impact Dasilva is still battling a knee injury, but has taken a major step in recovery after joining team training. That said, the club seems unlikely to push him for a quick return, slowly working him back up to fitness while they monitor the injury. The hope will be that he can play again this season after almost two full seasons away from playing time, hoping to earn the option for the 2026/27 season after inking a one-year deal to begin this season.

Impact Dasilva is still regaining fitness from his torn ACL, but is seeing progress this week, as the midfielder has returned to training on grass.

OCTOBER 23, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Back with Brentford Dasilva signed with Brentford until the end of the season, with an option for the 2026/27 campaign.

Impact Dasilva has been rehabbing with Brentford while out of contract and injured. He has evidently progressed in his recovery and is now fit enough for a role back with the team. He's had no minutes or pre-season preparation, so Dasilva is still likely some time away from any serious first team time.

OCTOBER 23, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Will rehab at Brentford facilities Dasilva (knee) will be out of contract on June 30 but will continue to rehab at the Robert Rowan Performance Centre over the summer, the team announced Friday.

Impact It's unclear if Dasilva will sign a new deal with Brentford over the summer, but the club is giving the midfielder all the chances to work his way back from an injury-riddled Brentford tenure. He last featured for Brentford on Jan. 31, 2024, and even if he returns to the club in a new deal, he'll likely be a depth piece and not much else.

MAY 30, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Sill in need of more time Dasilva (knee) is a still a bit away from a return, according to manager Thomas Frank. "Josh is a little bit further off it than Igor."

Not on the pitch Dasilva (knee) is yet to return to the training ground, according to manager Thomas Frank.

FEBRUARY 14, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Still without return date Dasilva remains without a return date following knee surgery earlier this year.

Impact Dasilva underwent meniscus surgery in February and then a few months later signed a new contract with the club. However, he's yet to return to the pitch and there hasn't been much information on his rehab. It's best to assume he's weeks, if not months away from a return.

AUGUST 23, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Signs one-year extension Dasilva signed an extension for the 2024/25 season, Brentford announced.

Impact Dasilva lost most of the 2023/24 season due to a knee injury, but has done enough to earn at least one more year at the club. Dasvila was limited to just three appearances but after four goals and two assists in 36 appearances in 2022/23 it's unsurprising to see that he's still considered a depth asset moving forward.

Impact Dasilva has not had the best of luck this season, having just returned from a serious hamstring injury. He will likely miss the rest of the season with knee injury as he looks to recover before the start of the 2023/24 campaign. The midfielder only made three appearances, coming off a year where he recorded four goals and two assists in 36 appearances, 14 of them coming as starts.

FEBRUARY 7, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Starts in draw Dasilva got the start during Friday's one-all draw with Wolves in the FA Cup.

Impact Dasilva played 63 minutes in the starting XI, a nice return from a serious hamstring injury. The midfielder isn't a major contributor to the starting XI, but he should see some minutes moving forward after making 36 appearances in 2022/23. Dasilva also earned six goal contributions in 2022/23, a very efficient return on 1,382 minutes.

JANUARY 5, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Still the midfielder's return was described as weeks and not months, giving him a chance to return before 2024. Dasilva has made just a single Premier League appearance this season before he picked up the hamstring issue.
