David Da Silva, one of the main stars of Persib Bandung, recently officially left the club. The departure of the player nicknamed DDS certainly left a trail that was difficult to replace, given his extraordinary contribution in the last few seasons.

During defending Persib, he was not only a foundation in the attack line but also became the main motor of the success of the team to win the League 1 title in a row in the 2023/2024 and 2024/2025 season.

David da Silva statistical records are quite astonishing. In the period 2021/2022 to 2024/2025, he scored 74 goals and contributed 18 assists from 113 matches.

With such an second performance, it is not surprising that Persib must rack the brain to find a substitute that is commensurate or even better.

The name Ramon Tanque emerged as the strongest candidate to replace the role of David da Silva. The 26 -year -old Brazilian is currently strengthening Visakha FC, the club that competes in the top caste of the Cambodian League, Cambodian Premier League.

News related to Persib’s interest in Ramon Tanque was first revealed by the Instagram account @bocahbolaid, which often shares information about Indonesian football and rumors of transfer.

“Brazilian striker, Ramon Tanque (26th) reportedly docked to Persib Bandung,” the account wrote on Tuesday, June 24, 2025.

This rumor is reinforced by information from the transfermarkt.com page, which states that the Ramon Tanque contract with Visakha FC will end on July 1, 2025.

This opens a great opportunity for Persib to bring in the player for free in the transfer market for the start of the 2025/2026 season.

Despite having to negotiate regarding salaries, bonuses, and other facilities, rumors circulating said that Persib had reached an oral agreement with Ramon Tanque.
