Thiago Silva is no longer a Fluminense player. With a contract until the middle of 2026, the defender signed his contract last Tuesday. Hours after the tricolor announced the player’s departure, Chelsea, his former club, posted a video on social media with moves from the “King”.
Champions League champion for the Blues in 2021, Thiago responded to the tribute with a blue heart emoji. In the publication, there are a series of comments that raise the possibility of the defender returning to English football.

As revealed by GLOBO, the Monster had already promised his wife, Belle Silva, that he would return to Europe to end his playing career close to his family, who live in London, England — the couple’s two sons, Isago and Iago, play for Chelsea’s youth teams.
Already aware of Thiago’s desire, the Tricolor board would like to extend his contract – it would end in June 2026 – with a view to competing in the Libertadores next year, but, at the same time, they understood the athlete’s irreversible desire, so much so that there was already an agreement so that he could leave the club even before the contract ended.
Even though he was not called up for Carlo Ancelotti’s Brazilian team, Thiago maintains his dream of playing in his fifth World Cup in 2026. In addition to England, the defender could play in other countries, such as Italy and France. One of the possible destinations is Milan, his former club, which has already shown interest in signing him, according to the local press.
