Thiago Silva’s return to Brazil this summer has long seemed likely, but now it seems inevitable.
The defender’s contract expires this summer and, after a successful few years at Chelsea,
his performances have started to decline in the last six months. Currently not in the squad at all,
Benoit Badiashile, Levi Colville and Wesley Fofana are still injured.
From all angles, it appears that the time has come for his long-awaited return to his homeland.
The natural landing spot would have been Fluminense.
Fluminense is where he took his first steps in football and where he still has many friends, including club director Fred.
He told ESPN Brazil about Silva returning to where it all started:
“Thiago Silva has been a dream of ours for many years and the president communicates
with him almost every week. Thiago has a contract in England, we support him, personally I’m a friend of his and a big fan of his character and
he deserves the best. He knows the door is wide open for him to come back here. »
With no talk of a new contract with Chelsea yet, we can only conclude that
the iconic defender’s career with the Blues is coming to an end.
It wasn’t easy either way and Leicester needed a late red card for Chelsea to take control and score two late goals.
However, there were also some great individual performances by Chelsea players, two of whom were part of the scoring team that day.
The Blues will no doubt be excited about their future with Paes, and with him already aiming for heights like the Ballon d’Or,
his quality seems to have no limits. However, the publication claims that
Chelsea are one of the Premier League clubs to keep an eye on the attacking midfielder and are prepared to do everything in
their power to sign him if he does not agree to a contract extension with the Bundesliga champions. ing.
