“Thiago Silva wants to leave Chelsea – Disenchantment with sports management and desire to return to Brazil”

Centerpiece of the Chelsea defense since his arrival in 2020 from PSG, Thiago Silva has performed so well in the jersey of the Blues that he obtained a one-year contract extension only a few months ago, thus binding him with the club until June 2024. Problem, the Brazilian central defender would no longer feel good in London and would now like to return to the Brazil.

Thiago Silva wants to leave Chelsea

According to the Brazilian newspaper Globo Esporte, the former Parisian defender now regrets his decision to extend his adventure at Stamford Bridge and would like to return to Brazil, and to Fluminense more precisely. After having recently repatriated Marcelo, the Brazilian club could therefore recall another ex into its fold, Thiago starting his career there in 2007. His honorary number 3 received last season is still free.

The reasons for Thiago Silva’s disenchantment would be twofold. On the one hand, the Brazilian would be particularly disappointed by the evolution of the sports management of the club, which he has moreover openly criticized in recent weeks by questioning the strategy of Todd Boehly. On the other, the central defender would be out of breath by the repetition of extended competitions and would no longer feel able to perform at European level.
