You might soon see Brazilian football star Thiago Silva making a return to his boyhood club Fluminense as he prepares to bid farewell to Chelsea, where he has been a key defender. Silva’s contract with Chelsea is set to expire at the end of the current season, prompting speculation about his future.
Silva, who is 39 years old, has been receiving interest from Fluminense back in Brazil. However, he is also considering options to stay in the Premier League or potentially move to another European club.
His two sons, Iago and Isago, are currently part of the Chelsea academy and his family has settled well in either London or Paris. When he eventually hangs up his boots, it is likely that his family will continue to reside in one of these cities.
Despite approaching his 40th birthday in September, Silva still believes he has what it takes to compete at the highest level for at least one more season. His time with Chelsea, where he arrived on a free transfer in 2020, has been positive overall, with the veteran defender proving his worth in the demanding Premier League.
After a disappointing 1-0 defeat against Manchester City in the semi-final at Wembley, Silva was emotional about the result. When asked about his future, he mentioned that a decision has been made, but he is not ready to reveal it just yet.
