The 39-year-old veteran refused to renew his contract with the London club
Defender Thiago Silva decided to leave Chelsea at the end of the current season. The 39-year-old Brazilian will part with the club as a free agent, the journalist reports Fabrizio Romano.
Let us remember that during the season, Chelsea was ready to extend the veteran’s contract, which expires next summer. Before the start of the 2023/24 season, Silva rejected offers from Saudi Arabia, and previously denied rumors of a move to Fluminense
However, the mentioned Brazilian club continues to lay claim to its pupil. In addition to Flu, Thiago played for Juventude, Porto, Milan and Paris Saint-Germain during his long career.
With the Parisian club, the Brazilian won 23 trophies, with Milan he became the champion of Italy, with Chelsea he won the Champions League. In addition, Silva has 113 matches and seven goals for the Brazilian national team, with which he won the Copa America and twice became an Olympic medalist.
Chelsea is in ninth place in the Premier League, but due to the lost points they are claiming a place in the European Cup zone. This week the Blues lost to Manchester City (0:1) in the FA Cup semi-finals. Tomorrow, April 23, Chelsea will face Arsenal in the London derby.
