Brazilian defender Thiago Silva confirmed this Monday the rumor that has been circulating about him for several weeks.
Thiago Silva will no longer wear Chelsea colors. After a four-year adventure with the team from the English capital, “O Monstro” has chosen to turn the page. He made this choice official through a video publication this Monday.
“Chelsea means a lot to me. I came here intending to only stay a year and it ended up being four years. Not only for me but also for my family. My sons play for Chelsea, so it’s a great source of pride to be part of the Chelsea family – literally because my sons are here. I hope they can continue their careers here, in this successful club that many players want to be a part of. I think in everything I’ve done here over these four years, I’ve always given it my all. But unfortunately, everything has a beginning, a middle and an end”he declared in a very moving message.
Thiago Silva does not rule out a return
The former Auriverde international is leaving, but he does not rule out a return to Stamford Bridge in another role. “Farewells are for those who leave and don’t come back. I plan to come back one day…”
With the Blues, the former Parisian had the chance to win the Champions League in 2021. Despite his advanced age, he played regularly with this team. Unfortunately, since this European coronation, he has not been able to add other major titles to his list of achievements.
Thiago Silva could now take charge of Brazil. His former club Fluminense says it is ready to welcome him. Rumors have also suggested that Al Nassr, the Saudi club where Cristiano Ronaldo plays, is keen to sign him.
