The Brazilian returned to Brazil to sign for Fluminense, before joining Portuguese giants Porto in January, where he won the league title.

Chelsea not considering a coaching role for Thiago Silva

Silva has now left Porto, and is weighing up the next step in his career, whether that be another season of playing or retirement.

The 41-year-old is currently completing his coaching badges, and is believed to be half way through completing his UEFA A license.

Reports in Brazil suggested Chelsea had offered Silva a role to become part of the club’s wider infrastructure, before eventually progressing to a coaching role.

However, The Sun have reported Chelsea aren’t currently considering a role for Silva in their set-up, despite both of his sons being part of the club’s Cobham academy.

Silva made 155 appearances for the Blues, and has a brilliant relationship with the fans who’d welcome him back with open arms.
