A big name in the history of Paris Saint-Germain fueled debates abroad this week.
Iconic player of the QSI era alongside Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Marco Verratti and Thiago Motta, Thiago Silva left an indelible mark on the history of Paris Saint-Germain. Despite his 8-year stay, the Brazilian left Paris quite suddenly, in the summer of 2020, after the Final 8 of the Champions League, which allowed the club to make an epic journey to the final.
Thiago Silva won this prestigious competition in the Chelsea jersey a year later. But he retains a certain bitterness from the end of his Parisian adventure. The Brazilian would still be very attached to PSG. To the point of coming back to it before hanging up the crampons?
“He remembers PSG with emotion”
“ Silva had some great years with PSG, which he remembers fondly, but as for a possible return one day after retirement, I think one of the obstacles could be the manner in which he left the club,“ explained journalist Jonathan Johnson in CaughtOffside. Of course, some of the people involved in his departure are now gone, like Leonardo, but it was a surprisingly unemotional departure.“, concluded the Briton.
