EPL: Chelsea to allow Thiago Silva leave Stamford Bridge on one condition

Chelsea will allow defender, Thiago Silva, leave Stamford Bridge on one condition.

According to football transfer expert Duncan Castles, Chelsea will allow Silva to leave the west London club only if the Brazilian wishes to quit the club.

Silva’s current contract with Chelsea will expire at the end of the season.

The Brazilian centre-back is yet to sign a new deal with the club.

The 37-year-old joined the Premier League giants from Paris Saint-Germain in the summer of 2020.

“I would be surprised if Chelsea allowed him [Thiago Silva] to leave easily,” Castles told the Transfer Window Podcast.

“Obviously, if the offer is so substantial that it’s difficult for them to match and they put it to Thiago Silva that you are going to have to take less money if you want to remain in the top tier of European football, then perhaps they will allow him to go if that’s his wish.”

Silva has been impressive for Chelsea under their manager, Thomas Tuchel.
