Romano: Chelsea progressing in contract talks with Thiago Silva

  /  Starbucksgreen

For the first time since the Blues’ embarrassing defeat to Brighton on the road, Graham Potter chose Thiago Silva to wear the captain’s armband.

Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano tweeted: "Chelsea are progressing in talks with Thiago Silva to extend the contract for one more season, valid until June 2024. Discussions ongoing, waiting for green light. "

No matter how much money Todd Boehly can spend during transfer windows, it is clear after Fulham contest, Silva is still in a class of his own.

"Considered top player and leader into the dressing room, Chelsea hope to complete the agreement soon."
