Chris Silva is nearing a departure from Fenerbahçe. Basketball Sphere first reported that Partizan had made a move for the center, and Eurohoops sources confirmed that talks are ongoing.
Silva drew interest from several EuroLeague clubs after impressing with AEK last season. Partizan and Barcelona were among the teams reportedly interested at the time, but he opted to join Fenerbahçe.
Silva struggled to find consistent minutes in Istanbul. He averaged 4.4 points and 1.7 rebounds in 16 EuroLeague appearances in 2025–26. In the Turkish Basketball Super League, he averaged 10.5 points and 3.9 rebounds in roughly 15 minutes across eight games.
This season, Silva has appeared in just four EuroLeague games, averaging 1.8 points and 1.2 rebounds in five minutes and 48 seconds. Fenerbahçe’s recent addition of Dwight Powell has pushed him further down the frontcourt rotation, making a departure more likely.
According to Basketball Sphere, Silva is expected to join Partizan if the sides reach an agreement. The outlet reported that the deal would cost the Belgrade club around $100,000 per month. With injuries and absences in the frontcourt, Partizan are looking to wrap up the move quickly.
