The ideal scenario still requires that the script is refined. But Thiago Silva must think of this potential final of the World Cup of clubs between his current club, Fluminense, and the ex of whom he will remain an eternal lover, PSG. The first stage for the 40-year-old Brazilian defender is this quarter-final this Friday evening (9 p.m.) against the Saudis in Al-Hilal. An international poster, disputed in Orlando (Florida), the paradise of the wealthy American retirees.
The post-cardboard of Thiago Silva is not for now. Why would he think about it after all that he demonstrates in the jersey of Fluminense’s “Tricolores”? The oldest club in Rio de Janeiro, the defender has been visiting him since his adolescence, during his training. After a first pass in Pro (2006-2009), he returned as heroes in the summer of 2024, welcomed by 50,000 fans in the immense Maracana stadium. A return to the country celebrated with great fanfare by an audience that is not always tender towards its idols.
